Constant moaning about the small things

Every day this week that I have got home from work, i have walked through the door to a constant barrage of moaning from Dh over what i think are small things. Tonight's latest rant has turned into a full blown (in my opinion) tantrum by Dh on how i can't do anything right.

Example include:
The bag of carrots i brought have the smallest carrots ever in so it took him ages to peel enough for dinner

(Same the next night but about potatoes)

I didn't stack the dishwasher properly (meaning the stuff he left on top of the dishwasher and he couldn't be bothered to put in!)

I didn't refill the water filter (I haven't used it recently so didn't know it needed filling)

I was late home from work (10 minutes, traffic was awful and I am in a management role so sometimes have to stay a few minutes late if there is a meeting)

I left my shampoo bottles in the shower

We both work full time, DH is currently on a leave of absence from work so has been off work for 3 weeks. I am still working full time and doing the majority of jobs around the house, food shopping and generally everything else. Dh picks dc up from school and sometimes cooks dinner! If I ever moan about anything he does, he'll sulk and stop and say there was a reason for it!

Is this a new thing for him, then, where everything in the world is your fault?

Can you arrange to go out with friends, or to a film, or anything to break the pattern of your usual return home? Then he can cook dinner and you can have a break from the negativity.
