Slammed doors-hurt feelings-selfishness.
Old wounds-backstabbing-lack of respect.
Obnoxious in-laws, fair-weather friends, fights about money.
16 years under construction-blue tape
cursing-yelling-being taken for granted.
Did I mention selfishness?
Folks dying around me-hormones-family rifts.
Straws and camels' backs.
Troubles you can't run from.
Questions that have no answers.
Fates that make no sense.
Children who suffer-mourning-CANCER.
Scapegoats-irresponsibility-jealousy.
Weight gain-lack of sleep-high blood pressure.
Skinny jeans collecting dust.
The almighty dollar-greed-recession.
Betrayal-lies-SELFISHNESS.
Bad tenants-teachers who shouldn't be.
Bullies-nice guys finishing last.
Plane tickets to I don't know where.
Disappointment- depression-mental fatigue.
Nobody listens to me!
Scary futures-sad pasts-desperately hard todays.
It's been a hard freekin' week, I wanna run away, and unfortunately, a pint of Ben & Jerry's just can't solve it all.

(Hey, if ice cream can't fix it nothing I could say would.)
Yikes.. .. I have learned to adopt a ritual of blackberry tea with a shot of brandy to take the edge off.. I would say a deep take a breath, fix yourself a hot bath, and turn off the world for an hour..but HANG IN THERE!! I need your wisdom on how to survive... hugs Denise
Sometimes there is nothing anyone can say to ease that darkness of "bad days," but just knowing we are out here ready to listen, wishing for your days to improve, can be some kind of salve on those wounds.
And the other Rx I offer for times when the earth feels as if it is about to swallow you up is this: Get up, get out and get moving... walk or run someplace and find a relatively empty spot to scream as loud as you can. At first you may feel self-conscious, but then you will be able to smile and maybe even laugh a little... I intend it.
