If I had given my wife (the city mouse) that same instruction set, she might have done the very same thing. Doesn't make her stupid!!! It means I expected something that she was not signed off on, educationally speaking, to accomplish with success.

One thing my DH knows, for the first week olds, we ALWAYS put marbles in the waterer so they don't drown. He knows that's what I do, why I do it and why it needs to be done. Sometimes you have to teach by example.

WHile we were pet sitters, my husband went to a house where I usually go, sweet dogs. I explained their routine and where we usually walked - no problem - right? Now, one dog had been trained as a pup with an electric fence. Unbeknownst to the dog, that fence hadn't worked for years, so he would still stop at the end of the driveway. To get him past that, I would lay a towel on the ground and "give him passage". {The owner told us the story and what to do when we first met them - this was a year or so before the event.}
I told my husband that to get him to go for the walk - DH had to use the towel. (OMG- I'm in tears just remembering this!)
DH comes home looking very puzzled and tells me that the dog wouldn't go for his walk and they played in the yard instead. I asked - Did you use the towel? DH said that yes he did, but once the towel was on his head he didn't want to walk at all. Ya - all I said was '...remember to use the towel...'

How many times have you sent him to the store for a can of corn and had him return with a can of green beans? That is a genius at work!

I KNEW IT! Oh you just ratted out every man in the world, I bet my husband reports you to the man club and they revoke your membership when they find out you were the squealer! (This will be after I show him this proof)

I have accused him of this MANY times and he always just stares at me like I'M the dumb one.

LOL! your stories are hilarious!

And no I'm not mad at him. stuff like this happens and being mad about it isnt going to change it right? So Id rather make sure he knows what to do next time and get on with my life.
