Smile Therapy

Watched a show and it got my PTSD all flared up. Hardly slept last night and when I did, it sucked. I finally fell into a decent sleep around 5.

My wife came in and woke me with fresh hot coffee around 9. She went to the closet and brought out the leathers. I laughed a bit and said, "Is that a hint?" She said "Yep, the weather man was wrong, it is beautiful outside!"

150 miles on the old Shovel later, we pulled back into the house. I was smiling...

As they say, you never see a Harley parked in front of a shrink's office...

Hence the reason I've always called it two wheel therapy.

There is never a Harley parked outside a shrinks office huh? There is outside of mine and its mine. I be a MH therapist, and I ride a 2011 Wide Glide and yes its great therapy. Can't wait till warm weather when I can get a dose for my own PTSD.
