Feeling Cranky?

Cranky: given to fretful fussiness: readily angered when opposed. Full of twists and turns  I’m angry, sad, annoyed, irritated, and cranky for all the obvious reasons we share and for no reason at all.  Most of the time, I manage it, but lately, I’m thrashing around physically, verbally, and emotionally.

We owe the cooler, overcast climate during these months to the cold water current flowing from British Columbia, Canada and Alaska to California.… Continue reading The Zen of May Gray/June Gloom

Personal History vs Being in Love

  I just found out that May is Personal History month which naturally caused me to think about my own history.
