Bees, bees, and BEES! They terrify me - all of them...the fat hairy ones, the skinny long-legged ones. *shudder*

Oh, and sock monkeys. That's another whole thing.

But I do love sharks and have swum with many a shark in my day. Beautiful! Smiley Happy


sock monkeys? I feel there is a story there!

Spiders and falling trees.

On a couple of roads I travel from time to time there are large trees lining the road. One road the trees are kind of in a swampy area. I always cringe that they may fall on my car. I also hate going under railway overpasses when there is a train going across!

What is going on in the world now, and this country not really dealing with it.

Bees, wasps, etc. For awhile I had a phobia about driving on a freeway, expressway, etc. It was part of a larger, severe, anxiety disorder, but I still don't like it anymore.

Gosh I hate snow and ice, and especially having to drive in it.

Living in the Chicago area gives me plenty to worry about it!

My daughter's 3rd grade teacher had an INTENSE phobia of worms and snakes.

She could not even see SPAGHETTI without it being triggered.

My daughter brought a toy snake to school one day and this teacher went nuts and sent her to the principal's office.

Alzheimers -- yes I'm in that age group and see more and more friends getting it -- being locked up in a memory care unit -- yes I know it is for the safety of the patients but would rather be free even if I did not live as long -- dying alone -- and it is almost certain I will since I have No close relatives who would bother to come.

Not afraid of normal bugs and snakes -- in fact might have a pet colorful small snake if the pet stores sold Snake food as they do dog and cat food -- not willing to have dead mice around for them.

High places -- afraid of falling or jumping off.
