So earlier, I had a post about an expanded view of anxiety. And that’s true, I’m feeling more and more that’s my perspective, and expanded view. On that last post, I had shared a note that I have on the wall that that correlates anxiety to coping with discomfort… And maybe that’s true also… But …

Missing Dierks
Had a plan to see Dierks Bentley last night with a work buddy at a popular amphitheater nearby. We were going to head to the show around 6pm. I didn’t make it. Just before 5 PM, I got a call from the house manager at the boarding Care home where my mom lives. My mom …
An Expansive View
I’m taking a more expansive view of anxiety; this approach a means to both better understanding it and harnessing (?!) its power. Yes, I said harnessing its power. Anxiety is powerful, and also complex; at least I’ve come to consider my anxiety in this way.
Yucky
Youngest feeling yucky, tummy troubles, no fun, Time to time she seems to have this situ, humbling, bumbling dad, me, trying to help, Her mom seems more successful therein, So there she sits over the commode, no wanting her bed or couch, too risky, Feeling yucky is sucky, no doubt.
Stuck
Got stuck? Work it. Don’t want to?! Rock and a hard place, no easy solutions to resolve. F*ck the feelings, gotta figure it out. Got stuck? Get through.

Mad dash means we’re hustling, intent on the goal, reaching the end of the activity or activities that constitute conclusion… To finish the dishes, the meeting, the laundry, the showers, the bits of tidy to …

Scratch The Itch
Tough not to, Scratch that itch, Lifelong struggle, makes me twitch, Skin crawling, no balling ‘bout it, Don’t like it one bit, to wit, I know tho’, gotta go slow, don’t throw caution to the wind, Sure thing I’ll dig in and scratch ‘til I bleed, ooo wee gotta leave it alone, Let it crawl …
