One of the things I'm really doing to GAL is controlling my anger. I'm trying to realize getting angry over trivial things is pointless.

Case(s) in point:

My daughter got a new puppy. She is not near hour trained. She urinates on the carpet. I shrug my shoulders and clean the mess.

My A/C going on the blink. I actually think it's pretty funny when I troubleshoot the problem while I'm sweating my ass off.

My commute to and from work doesn't seem to bother me nearly as much. I'm trying to come to the realization there is nothing I can do about it and getting to work or coming home angry isn't fun.

It's amazing how letting these aggravations slide off my back is uplifting. I have realized these things that used to get my blood boiling are really trivial and my mood stays upbeat where before I let those aggravations gleefully fuel my anger. Baby steps but it's a happy start.
