All quiet on the Western Front
aneurysms | health | lifeA couple of weeks ago, I didn’t care about aneurysms. Then, my Dad had one and it’s impacted my life in ways that I never expected.

I Broke My *_%@ Toe. Again.
blog | et cetera | foot | frustration | humor | injury | life | north carolina | random | toe | writingMy house has these two decorative columns that divide the living room and dining room.
