Sewbiz, Maybe he wasn't intending his remarks to come out that way. Maybe he truly doesn't understand how you can have that much patience, perseverance, and dedication to it all because he can't understand the satisfaction we get out of being creative. My hubby is on the total far end of the rational scale of expressing oneself. Me, you guessed it, totally on the emotional end. Couldn't be farther apart if we tried. But we give each other space to do our own thing.
He rolls his eyes a lot when I ask his opinion! He is an expert eye roller!
