And here’s what I mean by “this kind of nerve health.” Have you ever heard someone say “you got a lotta nerve?” Usually they don’t mean that in a good … The rest of the story…
Rain started off our Tuesday morning weather, today. And it cooled things off a bit. But I like cooler weather because I feel more like moving around. But one thing’s for sure.

When you’re young, still in school, and ready to go barefoot, those summer days suit your fancy. You start to picture yourself in a sparkling, clear pool with your friends. Or maybe you see yourself walking down white, sandy beaches. But it seems like those days take forever to arrive. And you have to go barefoot inside while you wait.

Cow secretions and bee vomit. Yum, yum. I don’t know about you, but I’ll be goin’ back for seconds. Oh yeah!
