“Opening up a can” on Anxiety

Date August 10, 2009

For those who don’t know, I’ve spent a portion of my adult life dealing with the wonderful effects of anxiety! I’ve had a lot of great people help me throughout this time that have really made a difference in my life, and helped me to understand how many people out there deal with the same [...]

A Hooptastic Culdesac-Club addition

Date August 9, 2009

Today was a joyous day for our culdesac.
Two of my close neighbor friends and I, all of us in our late 20’s, have been trying for the last few months to recapture our youth and figure out how we could come by an inexpensive basketball hoop for the end of the circle. After each of [...]

TS Fay still unleashing the wind & rain

Date August 22, 2008

What a mess we have here in Jax and the surrounding areas. The rain and wind has not let up and there has been many reports of power outages (not us fortunately) and flooding (again, not us fortunately). Our lights did blink a bit last night and today, but we are definitely lucky [...]

Half way through Fay

Date August 21, 2008

Well, we’re finally feeling the force of Tropical Storm Fay, something we were able to avoid on Wednesday and for most of Thursday.
