Overwhelmed and Pissed Off




If you are in a good mood right now-you may want to stop reading this blog.

This day is crap and so was yesterday. I cancelled pretty much everything I had today to just wallow in my own resentment, anger and bitterness. Nothing specific just a bunch of crap that adds up over time and then spills over.

Mainly I am tired of dealing with the same type of crap over and over and over again.

My husband really, really, really does not do well with change and transition. That is a fact; he is the first to admit this so no offense or surprise to him. So when change occurs-the world tumbles down. No matter what I do or what I try it does not make a difference. Ever.

Let’s try a different strategy of support-Tarina will focus on her own stuff for the next two weeks entirely and stay silent and away. Hopefully this has better success in showing partnership and support. I have never  used distance and alientation as a means of supporting someone but maybe I will try this now.

Today is just a bad day. Every blog I have read this morning annoyed me. The stupid emails I am getting in my inbox are angering me-but I know deserved as luck is not drawn to people who are mean and bitter. The 17 page document of sports equipment I have to go buy or rent for my son to go sleep on top of a mountain in a tent for three days in the USA is infuriating me.  The woman at the gym who goes 5 times a week and seems to be getting fatter by the day is making me insane. And the car we just got washed that is now full of bird crap from our big oak tree is really grating my nerves.

Today was supposed to be a brighter day. It really isn’t.

Yup sometimes a lesson hits you good and plainly in the face doesn’t it? It’s time for me to shift gears. Change strategies. Stop doing the same things I do that don’t have success.

I think it may be time to plain old give up in some areas of my life. Hopelessness has a friend today. It has reared it’s ugly head before and it will again.

And even when I am this pissed at least I can say I am authentic. Even if most of you would prefer I wasn’t?

PS-I will be back.

PSS-sorry for references to swearing and swearing in last couple of days. As my friend and I (now in Swiss share) when you have days like this nothing in the world feels better than a good swear session. I am glad my kids don’t take an active enough interest in my life to read this.

PSSS-  I generally try to be a pleasant role model for my kids and a good citizen
