This is a quicky…
One thing that has cropped up as my life progresses.
In the shower, flipping my head down so my hair hangs toward the floor and I can wrap it in a towel. Every time I do this, I have a flash of panic that I’m not standing far enough away from the tile wall…
And the image that comes to my mind is not pretty! Blood everywhere, unconscious woman, just me and the kids… or worse! Just Darla.
But then I realize I’m still there, standing with my head hung over my waist…
I haven’t hit my head. So, I wrap my wet hair in the towel and get out. Phew!!
Anyone else have really ODDBALL moments of fear and panic??

I love this. I am so like that. Son running late.. Must be smashed on the side of the road. The worst one for me was when I was a young (er) Mom and I would be in the city with my baby. I would envision him getting shot and bleeding. Me standing over him, screaming, crying, completely freaking out. This scene played so much in my head that I generally avoid cities. Because, you know, people in te country don’t have guns 😉
haha. right!! too funny, Katie. 😀
…and yes, that’s an odd fear. Must be in the genes.
Yes! Sometimes when I’m driving, I have a quick flash of a car swerving into me or me blowing out a tire. It’s creepy.
