Rosey ~ Maybe this sounds silly, but maybe it is the full of the moon affecting Mr. CP. My sister says she always had the worst fights with her ex-husband around the full of the moon.
My DH had been irritating too. I told my sister that I took the title of that book ~ Men are from Mars and Women are from Venus and changed it to ~ Women are from Venus and Men are Irritating ~ LOL.
Just a couple little responses he made that ~ the tone or the choice of words set me off. He probably meant nothing by them, but it bothered me. Maybe I think about stuff too much. Oh well.
