Pictures my kid took...

Universe, what are you trying to tell me?  Holy coyotes are wailing outside.  Such high pitched maniacal yips and screams.  The neighbor dog is barking in the distance too.  He sounds so much more sane with his earnest steadfast bark, compared to those gypsy coyotes.  

It just seems I am being dealt one trip (like in the "trippy" sense, AND in the stumble sense) after another.  And actually some of those trips are more like freaking free falling into an unknown abyss, where the landscape is sharp, cold and unforgiving. Seriously.

For some reason, I am totally zen about it.  Right now is fairly decent, if not, dare I admit, absolutely beautiful.  The good stuff in front of my face is what I'm doing most of the time.  So the darker stuff that resides in my head only shows itself when I'm alone at night with my thoughts.  Which, actually, these days only happens once or twice a week.  Usually I pass out with my kids, who have taken to sleeping with me again, full time, without Papa.  He is sleeping in Asa's bunk bed.

The computer has been acting funny, and takes forever to load anything.  So in the brief moments that I usually use to write, I can't, because by the time it loads I have to go back to living my life, instead of writing about it.  That has been really annoying. 

Asa got a hold of my camera last Friday night during "movie night" and took some amazing pictures.  I hadn't even seen these until a few minutes ago.  I love them real big.

 

And there you have it.  My kids are obsessed with creepy scary stuff right now.  They both already have Halloween costumes.  And they checked out only Halloween books at the library.  

Hmmmmmm.  Happy late summer/early fall!
