I believe I saw a coati while riding my dirt bike in the desert today.

Peanut butter and jelly sandwich. I am debating going out for a real breakfast. Decisions, decisions….

Turkey vultures soaring at eye level while I have my morning coffee. Also there is a humming bird migration coming up from Mexico and we are on the edge of it so lots of humming birds visiting my flowers.

A very unhappy rattle snake.

Star Trek People or solitude?

I have some travel coming up. On the 5th I fly to California and then on the 10th to Europe for 15 days, then back to California for a few days. Then I am spending the month of November in South Africa where the gal I am dating has a place out in the middle of nowhere. Unfortunately I won’t be...

A double rainbow from the front porch.

Early morning from the porch.

That is exactly what I am doing. I was the last person in my class to be able to spell my name, I was slow learning to read and write. When I was 7 the school did some testing and then told me I had a high IQ and that was it. I am excited about the evaluation, i should get my referral on Monday.

I am going to have the formal testing done. I know I have PTSD but it is really looking like autism might be a factor too. Lots of overlap but autism seems to have some distinct features which I have and some are questionable. Just reading about it I am learning more about the subtle ways I...

Dick move for sure. There is no excuse to be an A-hole with someone else’s heart.

This flower is a volunteer next to my deck below the bird feeder. One of the seeds musust have fallen and germinated.

Yes that is the one, the best book yet I have read on CPTSD. It was a life changer for me. I recognized things I was doing that I was totally unaware of. I read about it hear so I purchased it and for me it was a real page turner.

I am a sufferer but I felt a need to comment. First off I wish my wife had done what you are doing. I think the book idea is great. There is that widely applauded CPTSD book that is talked about often here. I have read it and it is very good, I am just going blank on the title right now...

Neuro Tribes, Steve Silberman. Really good.

The Professor’s House, Willa Cather

Thank you. It is like a whole other layer of the onion.

I have questions about autism. The woman I have been dating I used to date 35 years ago. Sometime between then and now she was diagnosed with autism. We both have PTSD and talk about it often so she knows all my stuff. She suggested that I look into autism and I am shocked at how closely my...

Turkey vultures.

I think hey have been habituated to humans so they don’t seem to mind people. If I step outside and one is near by it will freeze and we look at each other. If I move it will trot away not full out. Sometimes Lulu will bark like crazy if she hears one walking by.

I have deer that bed down about 50 feet above my house. They are Coues deer, a small form of white tail that only lives in the southwest. They have been coming out between rain storms today. Here is one from a few days ago.

Local wall art. Bisbee is my kind of place.

Thank you. It is hard to tell if it is trauma or autism. Maybe both.

I have always felt out of place, like everyone else got an instruction manual.
