Do you suppose blogs were designed to vent anger?

I'm so mad tonight! Mad about everything in my life being turned upside down, I'm mad that everyone needs me to do a million and one things and all I want to do is stay in bed and sleep. I'm mad that my husband only worries about doing what makes the Army happy and will drop everything without a fight for a soldier but not for his own family. This army post has been horrible for my marriage, horrible for our finances, horrible for my ego, my kids and everything else that matters. I hate it here, I hate everything and I just want to sleep. Why can't people understand that? Why can't people understand that my husband leaves in a couple days for what amounts to almost a year and a half?

Why do they think I care even a tiny bit about the lid that's missing from their Tupperware order or helping them make over their cupboards with the million Modular Mates they ordered from me last week. I don't care about the radio promotion I'm supposed to be doing for our Relay For Life....damn me for being co-chair anyway! But here in my real life I have to do these things for other people. I'm a people pleaser and to be honest that sucks. I want to be the one who everyone drops their things to help, when is it my turn? Instead I try to make everyone else happy and meet their expectations instead of taking care of my own first.
