Jason now has anti-anxiety medication and a referral for a psychotherapy place. He's still unable to sleep and nervous, but he appears to be dealing with it a bit better. The doctor was quite pleased that he had decided to come in and get help. I only know this because Jason made me go back to the exam room with him for moral support.

In an effort to get his mind off things, he went to see Gran Turino with his dad this morning. I opted out and took Ferguson on a long walk instead. The weather was perfect--about fifty degrees with a slight breeze and overcast skies. It felt like autumn instead of winter, and the fresh air did me quite a bit of good since I've not slept well the past three nights either. Ferguson, of course, enjoyed himself immensely. He's a dog; anything outside would make him happy.








(It doesn't come out well enough in the pictures, but from this vantage point, you can see the entire city. It was a cloudy, so the city blended in with the sky quite a bit.)







The last two pictures were actually taken at a tiny park on the way back from the Sandia Forest. I live within walking distance of the forest, so we like to go up there for the trails. However, the park is on the way back and I'm fascinated with the odd metal sculptures and circular nature of the thing.

Now that Jason has arrived home, I've swindled him into buying me ice cream. There will be extensive reading coming up this evening, which will make this a most perfect day.

It amazes me when I see pictures like this, how expansive our country really is. That we can have desert like this (beautiful, btw) and then places like Maine? Or the Everglades? Or the Rockies? It's intense

I think it's amazing, too. I love, love, love landscapes and nature and everything that is wild. Growing up surrounded by hills and forest in West Virgina is so different than here in New Mexico, but I don't know if I could pick a favorite. They are both so beautiful in their own ways. I wish I could take a year and just travel around the country, seeing all the different climates and environments.
