sounds like a great place for a hike

Did you hear about the spiders going nuts outside of Dallas, Texas, my hometown?
Tens of thousands of mosquito carcasses sucked dry of their blood weigh down the webs, which look like hammocks stretched horizontally from branch to branch……Hissing cicadas, croaking frogs and red fire ants live in the area around a small pond next to […]

weighing in

My anxiety rises. It permeates the house atmosphere, even more than dirty dog smell. From my first waking moment until I go to bed at night, a low level buzz is present.

the day after

Well, bear with me. I am recovering. Just as my cold began to clear up, Kid had her walapalooza birthday party extravaganza (once I find the camera cable, I’ll post a few choice pics). I’m now doubling up on therapy sessions for PTSD.
