What Made You Angry Today?

[CraftyCath]

I'm just angry but I don't know what or who I'm angry at. it just simmers in the background so it must be something from the past.

my attitude

I'm angry at myself for letting people put me down and say I'm a bad mum. I will not let it happen again, as I love my babies and no one knows what I do for my kids.

I'm also angry as my husband woke me this morning and I wasn't ready, I'd hardly had any sleep :eek:

Ok, Went to the shopping centre to get to the markets outside. Christmas decorations. :mad: And a big Huge Christmas tree outside where the market stalls are so you have to squeeze past it and other people to get to the stalls. :mad::mad:

I saw this and thought of you.

I was angry at work this morning. It is a small office and I'm the only one in on a Friday. When I need to go to the loo, I lock the office door and disappear for a few minutes. This morning the phone rang whilst I was in the toilet. The answer phone picked it up.

When I lestened to the message the awful woman who didn't leave her name had said 'I'm not talking to a machine, you are supposed to be open between 9 and 1'. I was so cross, she didn't phone back, just as well as I would point out that actually I don't take the office phone to the toilet with me:mad:, and maybe if she had wanted a car booked I wouldn't have a driver available :devilish:

KP. Poor Santa! My kids will be devastated :rolleyes:

Actually I do like Christmas, well I like the idea and I like the fantasy and I love how my kids are soooooo excited. And I love the look on my faces as they get up in the morning at 3 am :mad: to open the presents which I have bought them that will probably take them till 10 pm at night to open all of them cause there are so many :cry:

Just the reality of my Christmases as a child were so different from the excitement that led up to it.

I do like cosy Christmases with big real beautiful smelling Christmas trees and lights and a cosy fire, and yes, the dream of snow outside. And I have just about every Christmas movie there is and my favourite film is "It is a Wonderful Life. (shhhh don't tell anyone :eek:)

Just can't stand Christmas in 35 degree heat in blazing bright sunshine. And I know plenty of Australians love Christmas on the beach, i just can't get my head round that one.

I am the one with the 7 ft real Christmas tree that touches the ceiling and takes up most of the room,(that I am allergic to and come out with a rash all over if I touch it). And the Christmas lights outside which are getting more and more.every year (Probably because it feels so unchrismassy here that I am desperately trying to make it feel like Christmas should be (an impossible dream)).

But what I truly don't like is how Christmas in the shops now begins in August!. Actually surprised really they have left puttng up the decorations until now. And I don't like how I am so sucked into the commercialism and I fall for it every time.

Yes me too Lizzio! It has got so commercial! We had good Christmases when I was a kid, but when my boys were little my Mum would invite us over for Christmas with the rest of the family and complain about the noise the boys made. The next year she would ask us but say the boys could only bring one toy and they would have to play upstairs! (In the cold as she had no heating)!

I gave up and decided to stay at home and let my kids run free! It wasn't about me but about the enjoyment they had. Now with both parents dead, the rest of my family get together and my husbands family get together and we stay on our own - no pretending to be nice or on our best behavior. We can eat, fart, sleep, go for a walk and RELAX. Commercial Christmas? Big Family Christmas? No way! Just 'us,' a nice dinner and a walk - perfect!

Injected myself right into the middle of a friends treatment of an outdoor cat... the animal has a hole in its neck the size of a nickle... it's abcessing and you can see the musle tissue of the neck. I got him to look at it, he told ME to go to his vet and pick up antibiotics. But the vet tech said that since they have never given any shots to the animal that if I get bit or scratched I'm gonna need antibiotics too. Now I'm angry as heck... here we go again back to my impotent rage at people who let animals suffer or do not take care of them once they've accepted responsibility. My friend is gone for a week, I am wanting to try but afraid to get injured. It's not my responsibility, but here I am again. I put myself through this because I am not able to be blind to suffering. And I don't like people very much right now.

I'm angry the one night I want to go bed as I'm completely knackered my husband decides to play his X Box.
I really thought I could go sleep but no and I think it's wrong, if I could walk up the stairs I would. I miss my angel hugs, I miss my bed as it was made for me.

I'm mad as I spent most of last night coughing and trying to cool my throat down as all I could taste was sick,side effects of my new pills, as is needing the bathroom every 5 minutes, hair loss, dizziness and sickness.

I never watched Tangled as I was so tired and HE WOKE ME UP AGAIN!!!! I could have killed me but just did my 7/11's that my CPN taught me.

 

[LilacFaerie]

I felt anger today because it finally sunk in that my husband will never be the same as he was pre-PTSD. It's so unfair to us both!!!

We can only wonder "Why?? Why him?"

I'm pi$$ed - can't we EVER catch a break!!?

Albatross, I am with you on this animal cruelty thing. I have seen it over and over and it bothers me so much! Too bad we can't save them all huh? When my neighbor got her puppy it was so hard for me to know it wasn't being taken care of properly, but there was nothing I could do. People are so hard to deal with sometimes!:(

I'm going to have to remember to always go to Staples when sending a fax. I lost count on how many corner stores have the nerve to read my faxes which has personal info on them. I like Staples as they never read them. Plus with them I do the sending of the fax then take the confirmation sheet to the desk to pay for it. All they ever look at is to see if it's a local call. I get so pissed off at these stores sticking their noses where it doesn't belong.

One I went to I told him to mind his own business. Instead of apologizing he made an excuse for his nosy behaviour. Needless to say I never went back to any of those stores ever again. So I guess they lost business from me in the long run.
