- Well, I cried in front of two classes I taught today. I wrote here when I got back to the States that being in Mexico when that El Paso shooting happened and then coming back to the USA to teach class after those 22 people died being hunted down...
- My mentally ill parents were my primary abusers since childhood as a missionary kid overseas in a war zone. As an adult, after a violent physical attack during a visit to them for Christmas 1992, I estranged myself from them for 8 years. Then...
- All mass shootings matter, but of the recent ones that happened in Dayton and El Paso, one of the two affects me at my workplace more directly. I was in Mexico when the El Paso shooting happened. That's where I'm retiring in two years because...

- I leave after midnight at 3am on the bus to the airport here in Mexico to leave for the USA after my summer down here. Things aren't right. I'm still not 100% since I posted here on the 25th that I was happy to finish my work here in Mexico,...
- I got up anxious this morning because at the end of the week I have to return from Mexico, where I plan to retire, to my workplace in the USA, where I have 2 years more to go before retiring.It's not just about going back to work, it's about going...
- TRIGGER WARNING-FEELING FRAGILE-BAD LANGUAGEI can't put my finger on a particular stressor as the cause, but whatever the reason, I just woke up to a flashbacky day today. I have an emotional disc jockey in my brain that often plays a theme song...
- It's Sunday, and I just got in from the airport down here in Mexico. Now that my trip is safely over I can say it: I was almost in a mid air collision on the flight down, y'all! If not for the quick reactions of the Mexican airline pilot...
- Just another one of my heads up this summer about my travels between the USA and Mexico and my internet, wifi, and/or DS access. The last two times I've traveled between the two countries, I have indeed had temporary trouble gaining DS access. ...
- It wasn't IT trouble that kept me from logging on this time on my trip between Mexico and the US. It was a series of travel mishaps such as I haven't seen on a trip in years. Weather canceled a connecting flight that left me grounded for 24...
- I'm letting y'all know I'm traveling between Mexico and the States again this weekend. When I did it June 2nd, some IT issues came up, as y'all know, that had me offline from here until June 18th. Then, with SunCloud's wonderful help, Daily...
- Hey, y'all. I clicked "I am going through a crisis" here but actually, I'm happy to report it just ended today. I never seem to click it much, so I figured I'd do so now even if I'm half a day late in doing so.It's been great to be back on DS...
