My Words Remain Unwritten as … Mother Nature Spurs Helios into Action.

The long overdue construction of our new tent & spring cleaning were unavoidable!

How dee all,

It’s been more than a week since I’ve put pen to paper or a single finger on my drunken delinquent keyboard.

This is just how things pan out at the Tangled Teepee.

It’s not for a lack of planning or ideas or writer’s block but, because of Helios’s PTSD and the procrastination it causes in his head.

There are just some things that happen in life … and there’s no way around for me to circumvent them.

And as we opened the tent door next morning, we saw the true degree of her power! Another massive branch (almost a foot in diameter) lay in front of the tent. As if to warn Helios with a “do it again & this is what you get!” after commentary.

Helios paid attention to her warning and the PTSD rage has thus far has not returned.

But, the already Tangled Teepee was a mangled mess!

Too many broken poles to repair! So I sent an S.O.S to our Earth Angles (there another…
