And it's all over! The happiness is crazy and the thankfulness is huge.
Went down with Husband, picking up Daughter on the way.
Beautiful, beautiful morning....

Instinctive Fears
"All of us are born with a set of instinctive fears--of falling, of the dark, of lobsters, of falling on lobsters in the dark, or speaking before a Rotary Club, and of the words "Some Assembly Required."
---- Dave Barry
I don't have a lot of phobias, but the one I do have wasn't on this extensive list: A list of Phobias
I was happy to discover that there are a lot of things that I am not afraid of! Like otters. And beards.
Do you have a phobia? Not just a general dislike of something, but is there something that really frightens you?

I have a fear of falling. Not heights - falling. Like roller coasters, and skydiving. Which I like to think is fairly sensible, but apparently the majority of the country disagrees. Because I see y'all, and you're still riding roller coasters.
So what's your phobia? Give over :)
How funny. Dave Barry's heard of my phobia, but it's not on the list...
Mine is falling as well I guess. I always categorized it as heights, but now I see the difference. Roller coasters and bungee jumping are not on my bucket list.
Jo, are you afraid of falling on lobsters in the dark too?! ;) I didn't see that one on the List.
I am irrationally afraid of stepping on (and popping) earthworms on the sidewalk and of broken bones.
And I can assure you - you won't see ME riding any roller coasters!
Alisa - I'm with you! I so hate that sick, sucking feeling in my stomach when I drop suddenly, like on a swing or amusement park ride. It's gotten worse as I've gotten older.
