I think it's great that you have boo...Hi Linda. I think it's great that you have books on managing anger. I've learned that if I swallow, close my eyes, and then walk away for a few secs and then come back and confront the situation, I can better handle my anger. With age, we seem to learn life's lessons. I'm not reading anything right now. I was trying for 12 books for this year but lately I just haven't felt like reading. I am going to send for the book Eat,Pray, Love. In fact I'll do that today. Take care Linda and glad you include your Grandchildren in reading good books.GlorV1https://www.blogger.com/profile/06789212398770555465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8548636820713494812.post-83021582452513268832010-08-05T12:09:55.038-06:002010-08-05T12:09:55.038-06:00Hey girl, I remember my therapist gave me an anger...Hey girl, I remember my therapist gave me an anger management book years ago while I was separated from a-hole ex. I had just found out he had gone "household" shopping with that woman he is now married to and came over to pick up Ian for something or other. Asked him if it was true, since we were still married and working on a reconciliation, I was anyway!!!! He told me that our daughter was mistaken, he said she saw the mop in the front seat...yea, little did that woman know later on....!! LOL Anyway, I asked him since when do mops come with blond wigs and dark sun glasses!!!! He still kept to his story until I saw the book on my bed stand and threw it at him...hit him in the cahonies!!! Now that what I call anger management!!<br /><br />Anyway, I think it's a great start to get all that stuff out...can't walk around with all that "stink" inside of you, my friend. Take care and know I'm always thinking about you and how you should be IN BED, for gawdsake!!<br /><br />Love ya and goats wheeze you kisses,<br />GGeorginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06116265151107562546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8548636820713494812.post-20237109993747120292010-08-05T11:53:39.320-06:002010-08-05T11:53:39.320-06:00Sounds like some good books you are reading.

I am able to vent...and it does help.<br />Marymxtodis123https://www.blogger.com/profile/13583200601379394225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8548636820713494812.post-76633952557407873442010-08-05T10:16:22.601-06:002010-08-05T10:16:22.601-06:00I could definitely use some work on the anger issu...I could definitely use some work on the anger issues myself. Most of the time I find the humor and snark necessary to move past it but when I'm run down people should probably run far-far away because my bullshit meter quits existing. ;)<br /><br />I tend to read 2 or more books at a time too! As for what I'm reading currently... I'm reading a comedic vampire novel by Christopher Moore called 'You Suck' and a historical fiction novel that I'm reading to review called 'The Miracles of Prato' which follows a fictitious affair between renowned painter Fra Fillipo Lippi and a Nun. So far, they're both quite good. <br /><br />Also, let me know what you think of that spell book, it sound enticing!Dannihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07686692876719223611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8548636820713494812.post-55455332088023436912010-08-05T09:41:03.727-06:002010-08-05T09:41:03.727-06:00Inannasstar: My goodness girl....of course we use ...Inannasstar: My goodness girl....of course we use humor, they don't call me snarky old broad for nothin'. Thanks for the new book to check out. I too have found that venting on this blog has helped. I could do more but my living in SC, couldn't take care of his family cuz he had to stay home and micro manage the wife, no smarter than a paper bag, SIL reads the blog and then cries to my daughter if I hurt his feelings...I don't think he reads the comments though....It'd be fun to find out though.<br />You're a peach and I love your rants cuz I know they come from way deep inside...I feel it too.OmaLindasOldeBaggsandStuftShirtshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09589622524456973822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8548636820713494812.post-61371918837602106832010-08-05T09:16:57.773-06:002010-08-05T09:16:57.773-06:00Another good book about anger is The Dance of Ange...Another good book about anger is The Dance of Anger by Harriet Lerner.<br /><br />I know you're probably shocked ; ) but I have anger issues too.<br /><br />Honestly....what I've done in working on them is to find the humor in whatever the hell has gotten me from serene and peaceful to wanting to slap a bitch. Then, often times, I blog about it. My blog has reeeeaally helped me get off that merry-go-round....I feel like once I get it out into the written word, it's left my body.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
