Frustrated (maybe)
First…I am so not a writer and my nouns, verbs and adjectives may not be in the right order! Now that that is understood…..

I am FRUSTRATED (I think) and just figured this to be a place to tell the world about this and maybe some other Frustrated people will find support in this. The world has gone to shit….not that it was great to begin with….and its quite a scary time. I’m a married, late 50’s black woman, suppose to be middle income but in my mind and in my bank account I feel like I should be at the food bank and calling the charities to help pay my utilities!!!
The frustrating/frightening/pissed offed-ness is affecting me because 1. I’m scared for my kids who are grown ass adults but the ‘system’ is making it hard for them to navigate (if you know what I’m talking about….then you know) and I’m not sure I would be able to help because my ass may be at the food bank!! 2. My husband wants to retire because his back and knees hurt but can we really do that? His 401k has went down because all the billionaires are making a profit but here we are back to calling around to find a food bank in the area. Is his medical going to continue or do we have to go to Medicare which is this still around due to this administration?? I wonder if the charities have free medical clinics for seniors? I’m going to have to research that shit now. Speaking of which….I’m also scared of taking all these pills since the FDA isn’t really a thing and that crazy man is in charge of medical for the US!! I know I’m jumping around….told you I am not a writer but I just have to get it out…. 3. I’m not sure if I’m coming or going with this menopause (no further explanation needed!!!).
I guess this isn’t really a ‘article’ more of a just venting….so we have this crazy man in office, the wife of his is questionable, the vice guy is crazy and his wife is crazier to stay and I question her thought process. Congress is a laughing stock, insider trading going on, sex with minors but nothings being done, other countries are punking us and its such a embarrassment and its all done at our expense and what are we to do??? Yes, I will go vote but damn….how did we get here in the first place? How are there so many in the world who are so self serving and they are like screw everyone else. You know what really gets me confused….the MAGA people who live in poverty and still vote like they are voting but are upset because their foodstamp and section 8 isn’t available anymore. What the fuck did you think would happen? OMG….I could go on and on but I am going to make a second cup of coffee and find out information on free medical just in case…oh and look for food banks also. Speaking of food banks….kind of off subject but should we be stocking up on non-perishable foods? Like how much rice can on actually eat ongoing every day?? This is the kind of shit that frustrates and stresses me out….I need a drink!!
