Ten-Word Tuesday.
This is the snake. The snake who lives in Bossy’s yard. The snake who lives in Bossy’s yard that Bossy’s husband has known about for at least one year. The snake who lives in Bossy’s yard that Bossy’s husband has known about for at least one year and he didn’t bother to tell Bossy. The snake who lives in Bossy’s yard that Bossy’s husband has known about for at least one year and he didn’t bother to tell Bossy because the last time there was a snake in Bossy’s yard she put her house up for sale and moved three states away.

Snake loose in house makes Hula pee pants…and move.
Complete failure in the form of an “f” in College.
The 27 cats I’ll own when I die old & alone.
Black Hockey Jesus will one day perish. I hate death.
I fear anxiety, or rather, I fear that anxiety will prevent me from doing stuff that I really wanna do.
Oh man SarahThe I still have dreams about that shape and it’s been over 30 years since I was in college! That anxiety seems to randomly reappear in my dreams… much like Bossy’s snake randomly appears.. just to yank her chain too..
Cars accidents loved ones.
snakes??????!!!!
keepin’ it fun, D. Downer
Finally exercising… walking, and being abducted, never heard from again!
P.S. I am not kidding! exercising never happens without a partner..
You are fortunate to live at a latitude where poisonous snakes do not. Live, that is. Think of the snake as a somewhat less cute and furry mouse, and you’ll do fine.
(p.s. I sorta like snakes.)
Thanks to snakes, I’ve given up running, until it snows
Bossy wakes up and she is a Nature Photographer. (Shudder.)
Being in car near the tracks when a train comes!

Who said you would die if you eat that fruit?
Never finishing these stupid government KSAs and being unemployed FOREVER.
[and crazed psychoninjas, but that takes me over 10 words]
something bad happening to one of my kids or hubby.
Any living thing that invades grandma j’s space without permission
Underwater photography/video. Fear of giant ocean beast leaping out.
fear of plane crashing- on the way TO my vacation
eight legged freaks who make me pee myself in fright.
Bugaboo finds neighbors’ pools, I find him in the bottom.
That BOSSY will require readers to email photos. Oh, wait.
None that have form — wispy specter of an unfulfilled life
Crossing busy streets, screech of brakes, waiting for the pain!
not liking my job
not having many options
being stuck
That I won’t outlive my cats. They are invincible, right?
being closed in and cannot get out. Cremate me, please.
Is this all there is? Seems that way sometimes. *sigh*
Bush Babe battling Bloody Big River Rats without one weapon!
Cancer, death, disease, sickness, nuclear bombs, AIDS, danger and birds.
Dusty, linty, leftover bits of eyelash yarn, masquerading as spiders.
(said imposter was lurking on the back of a picture frame)
Innocently reading blogs and coming across pictures of ugly snakes.
PS …snakes? Did someone say snakes?

Wanna visit, Bossy??
Fire. Middle of the night. Someone left inside. Snakes too.
Children dying before me, being left alone fending for self.
The question is whether Bossy’s hubbie John Cusak would kill it with his bare hands just to show her how much he loves her?
UC killed a mouse for AG shortly after we started dating because AG shrieked at another the night before.
In fairness though, UC kills mice for a living as a scientist.
Husband is out of town. Someone breaks in. Defend kids.
“P.S. It’s not that big.”
Bossy, the flippin’ thing might as well be an Anaconda.
I’d be calling 911 if I were you.
Absolutely terrified of snakes, even pictures of snakes scare me.
Snakes coming out of a toilet. That, and home invasion.
Falling asleep while driving with kids in car. . . I survive.
Waking to find man in mask standing over me (shudder).
Having one of my children die before me – terrifying thought!
damnitt bossy! now i’m going to have nightmares about snakes!
Underwater or in space – somewhere with no air – can’t breathe!
Split apart, lying helpless on the ground, bleeding broken heart.
My worst fear is a world without wine and internet.
Losing my children or watching them suffer or any way.
Losing my children or watching them suffer in* any way.
Bees. No wait, bees make honey. Ok, wasps and hornets.
“Sign right here, please, to donate your dying child’s organs…”
Anyone in my family dying, and also? Drowning. Oy vey.
I’m sorry. Can’t think. Damn snake has scarred me.
Tarantulas, scorpions, inside
That’s why we don’t live in Texas.
left alone at sea like those miserable bastards on dateline

Big hairy caterpillars.
Something bad happening to a family member.
Big hairy caterpillars.
Small, black and yellow, buzzing, waiting to sting me BEE!
Will I ever know for sure if he’s the one?
Um… that’s just a garter snake. It eats bugs and minds its own business. Same with the spiders.
Real worries – something happening to the kids. Or, unexpected guests seeing what a truly lousy housekeeper I really am.
Drowning under ice (remember the movie “The Omen”?). And snakes.
Unanticipated guests discover what a sloppy house I usually keep.
My fearsome shape is my MIL moving into my house.
What if someone throws a worm at me?
Walking down enclosed stairwell, I will fall when nobody’s around.

Severe birth defects.
A-I-R T-R-A-V-E-L!
(Flight, for us humans, is not natural.)
Heights, big birds, monkeys, cockroaches, not necessarily in that order!!!
The idea of having to die without having lived, unbearable.
