Just plain mad yesterday!

Yesterday was my first angry day. I had a short fuse and I was frustrated at people. This is so NOT like me...

I was angry at my boyfriend because when I got up at 6:30am I noticed he hadn't taken the garbage out. I paced back and forth thinking "That joker walked right past those garbage bags...HOW do you do that...somebody must think I'm haulin' those bags outside...well I got news for folks...I ain't haulin' nothin'...those bad boys can sit there for another week" I stewed for HOURS until I realized garbage day wasn't until Thursday. And yes, he took it out this morning.

I was ticked at the coffee maker because it wouldn't brew fast enough while I was brewing over the 2 garbage bags sitting at the door and the 1 in the kitchen.

In the early afternoon I was unnerved by my aunt who thought it necessary to inform me she was upset at my boyfriend for not returning her phone call last week about a Christmas gift idea for me. I didn't want to hear this...I can't control him. So now I'm angry at him AGAIN for not returning her call.

Then I was agitated with the GP who I waited 1.5 hours to see...just because I waited 1.5 hours to see him...which is nothing new.

Then last night I got mad at the margarine because I couldn't get the stick out of the box. I struggled with it before I tore the box in half and slammed it down on table. The boyfriend peeked around the corner into the kitchen at me a little hesitant to say or do anything.

I can't imagine how much worse my day would have been had I not been taking Premarin. Yikes!

I'm off to a MUCH better start today...thankfully.

Hi Marilyn,

Don't you just hate days as those???? I've been where you are and had my times I was not a happy camper.

I do believe hormones do things to us, but sometimes just plain life gets to us all. Right now we're all under more stress cause of having our hysters. It brings on a feeling of helplessness and feeling less self worth of ourselves, but remember it's only temporary and soon you'll be doing all the things you used to do.

I'm glad you're doing better today That's my girl I say when I get so down as you were yesterday that sometimes we just have to laugh to keep from crying.........laughter is an awesome medicine...put that with a positive attitude and you go far.. We all have our down days, but you picked up and today are better for it.

Have a good day

Okay, you have me laughing, as I sit here and look at 3 bags of garbage in my kitchen. Finally though, my son took it out, phew!

I definitely have those days. Last week I believe I threw pots out of the kitchen into the living room because they were in my way. The hubby and son just stared at me. :wowee:

Only us sisters can understand each other.

Ok, now your in trouble Marilyn - your post caught me off guard and I laughed without holding my dear sweet belly (can you say ouch)
Sorry if your post was not meant to be funny but heck, I couldn't help but laugh. Especially the garbage not being taken out on a day that is not garbage day. I don’t see the problem in that - you’re just being pro-active is all (lil smirk and grin)
It is so pathetic and so ridiculous the little things some of us get so witchy over. I suppose it is the mirroring of myself I read in your post that makes me laugh cause if I don’t laugh about it, I cry.
............and oh how much better it is to laugh
I hope today is working out much better, much less frustrating and with many more giggles.

First, I've got 2 garbage bags sitting in thekitchen and about 6 of them on the deck! Trash hasn't been taken out ONCE since surgery. I'm 2 weeks post op and trash runs twice a week.

Secondly, I have lots of days like that and I have my ovaries! What's wrong with me??

Here's to all of us!

.....I have my ovaries too but am finding out all too quickly that just because I have them still doesn't mean they work still...... or perhaps they do still work (I'm a hoping) and just need some more time to come back from the extended vacation they decided to take
....................going back to sit in my corner, cross my fingers and chant my little chant - "I love you ovaries, now start to work,,,,, I love you ovaries, now start to work,,,,"

*on a serious note - sometimes it take your ovaries a bit to "wake" up after being handled during the surgery

- you can chant with me anytime you like

Well ladies

You certainly know how I feel about all these things
HEHEHE Anyway, I have a new list but I SHALL refrain and just remind you that some days I am like
List, what list.... Other days the list has DOZENS of things on it. Although both of the cats are still on the list for a variety of reasons........
In the meantime, I got a new tattoo today. I highly recommend it. Lose a body part or two, gain a tattoo, that is my thought.
It says the phrase "bloody but unbowed" in latin, and it is a phrase from my favorit poem Invictus. It reminds me that I have and continue to fight the battle of this mentally and physically and I am STILL STANDING

Hugs to all

Harley

Funny, Ladies! I also talk to my ovaries AND today at 6:00 a.m. I yelled out like Medusa from the bedroom to my husband and sons, "TODAY IS TRASH DAY!". Wow, I'm so glad I am not alone at this weird, but strangely wonderful time in my life. I cannot admit this to hubby because he'll think I've really lost it, but I think I might also like to get a tattoo. What is the theory: Lose a uterus, gain a tattoo? Does anyone know Latin for "I Love My Ovaries"?

Thanks for the fun.
