PhotoHunt # 77 Original

These arrowheads are all original to Ohio and were found within a ten mile radius of my home in Swanton Ohio by me. They represent a diverse history of Northwest Ohio spanning 9,500-500 years of North American history and are my PhotoHunt entry "Original".

Treating Depression!

Someone I love dearly is suffering from depression and I can attest that the treatment of mood disorders is not a simple matter. It is not so simple as diagnosing depression and writing a prescription for Zoloft or Effexor. The individual causes of depression are diverse and poorly understood. The antidepressant medications used to treat it are just as diverse and matching a drug with an individual is not a clear cut decision. Individual symptoms, co-existing illness, tolerance of side-effects, and other medications previously tried are just a few factors that must be considered.

Surprised!

I was very surprised to find "Shadow" our family cat sleeping in my car. He doesn't like cars; at least that is what I thought by his reaction when we take him to the vet.

Smaller is Better!

This story comes to you from Olympia, Washington. A woman who says she doesn't really need anything except for a smaller place has done so by building herself a 84-sq-ft. dream home (roughtly 10' by 20') and relying on solar energy and a propane tank to run her day to day utilities and uses. Dee Williams is quite content with her new home and doesn't see the need to have a larger one. I know a few friends in Ohio and North Carolina that would probably do this just to save some money on expenses as well. Someone making $35-$40 thousand a year can find themselves having a lot of extra money in the bank that can be used on other necessities. As the cliche goes "You Go Girl".
