What do you do when you want to stab your husband in the leg with your overgrown toenail?
Inspiration struck me this afternoon for a post while in the grocery store with my husband trying to figure out dinner-which was super delicious in theory but turned into a mushy mess. Ugh.
But I just had a huge fight with my husband & right now I am steaming mad. Like steaming & I can’t even think straight to write a decent post. PLUS the post I was going to write was about my husband & I’m not feeling really lovely towards him now.
And the worse part is I wish I could blog about what this particular fight because I’m 90% certain that there is a bunch of you who can relate & maybe even pass on some words of wisdom. But I can’t…why? Because I’m the stupid person who decided to inform all my family that I have a blog so they can read everything & that may not be a great idea since some of it may involve them. See I’ve said too much already I must not continue…
But if you insist. Tell me what you do not to make up with your husband because really I can’t explain to you how far that thought is from my mind, but tell me what YOU do to get back to your center. You know the place. The place that isn’t the place where you are still mumbling under your breath & maybe kicking his shoes on purpose or wanting to stab him in the leg with your overgrown toenails while you sleep.
Ugh.
Maybe I should start an anonymous blog don’t worry I’ll post the link once it’s up.
I’m going to go eat a Skinny Cow ice cream sandwich because irony is therapy.

I usually hope online to chat and read to find my center again.
Otherwise just going to the store to pick up a few things helps to blow off the steam.

I am actually super surprised that you are sensorring yourself!
My guess that means that what ever your husband said while wrong and deserving of your wrath, would also make him look bad in your families eyes and you don’t want that…. of course I could be completely wrong.
That being said, I try and focus on other stuff I enjoy. Undertake a project watch something funny on tv—- these usually help me to calm down (even if I still am not quite ready to make up).

It’s incredibly difficult to keep my family out of the loop because of social media. Damn social media and my tech-savvy family! But I have a strict ‘I’m going to blog whatever I want no matter what’ policy. My fiance has actually come to grips over the fact that because he is in my life, he knows full well our lives are blog fodder that I get to use. It’s nice. But anyway! Getting back to your center… This may sound nuts, but laundry calms me down. Separating it into colors, whites, darks, etc. and then folding it really just makes me very calm. I also like to handwash dishes, even though we have a dishwasher. Told you, it’s nuts, but it works for me so I’m not going to ask questions about it.

and on a side note, I really haven’t you seen you write about your family all that much. Other than you hubby on occasion and your son. And I think it’s perfectly okay when you do!

usually a good nap does the trick for me. I seem to have a fresher mind when I wake up about things, but if you can’t do that.
Do something that you enjoy to get your mind off things until you find your center again.

Sometimes I write a long ranting email to him and get it all out w/o interruptions. (And I don’t always send said email.)
Hope today is better!

Sometime I just write a raving long rant email to him. Hope today is a better day!

I know this feeling. But my husband has this interesting way of making me forget why I’m mad because he makes me laugh a lot. However, when it’s serious, I just take time for myself to read, blog, clean, nap, play with my daughter… Something away from him. We both get our “cool-down” period, and since my husband isn’t the “let’s talk it out” type, I don’t push him to discuss what happened. I simply tell him how what happened made me feel. (“When you yelled at me in the store/in front of our baby/etc, it really made me feel bad and I don’t think I deserved to be treated that way.”) I don’t push him to reply, acknowledge or anything, but I know he heard me, and that’s enough for me. And eventually, we’re back to normal.
As far as spilling everything on your blog, it’s never fun to put personal issues like this out there, but sometimes, you gotta let it out. Maybe next time, make up names and don’t list relations. So if your mom is Sue and dad is John, just refer to them as “this couple I know, Mary and Dave” … That could work.

I believe that if you want to write down your thoughts, do so. Who cares if someone sees your words and get offended? What you are doing is just venting up your frustrations.
