Today hasn't been a happy day for me. My anger has turned to rage at

this administration. Personally, I was forced to give up on attending my granddaughter's belated birthday party because her mother wouldn't allow me to take her to it.

So I told her mother off for messing up plans for the thousandth time and that I would not drive the 100 miles to get her next weekend.

Then I called my Republican Senator's office (Boozman) and for the first time tried to speak clearly. Told the lady that this immigration/gawd-awful detention shit had driven me to my limit. That we had an insane fascist/racist man in the WH and that I demanded Boozman do something. Suggested using the 25th. Amendment to remove him or impeach the sucker. My language was not good. She was horrified by my saying fascist and that my uncles had died 60 years ago fighting the same mentally damaged type as our 45th. She just said she'd "pass my comments on". I bet.

4. Hey hey hey

take a deep breathe. Do NOT let dt get you arrested. Cool out. If you have something to smoke...light it up. have a drink. We're all in this. When you're in a hole...stop digging.

5. If you have to vent do it here!

All you have to do is give a warning that you need to vent and you can say just about anything. You’ll even get a sympathetic audience that wants to share their frustration too.

DU is a great place for mental health.

6. Consider asking your healthcare provider for a beta-block prescription.

One pill every two days helps keep me calm. I totally understand how you're feeling.
