Here are her thoughts on open umbrellas:
“Being under them or close to being under them – my stomach churns, my shoulders and other muscles tense up, my breathing increases, my pulse increases, my toes curl, my ears pull (wiggle upwards), the hands clench.”
And it is not only open ones that scare her:
“Right now I have a closed one in my apartment, it bothers me a LOT. Today I had to touch it as it fell down and after I tossed it I couldn’t stop thinking about it. I thought it wasn’t here anymore. I don’t know who it belongs to – either my boy’s friend or my grandma. I wanted it gone a long time ago. I want to throw it in the garbage, but I don’t want to touch it again. The next time someone is over, I’m going to get them to do it. For now, I am keeping an eye on it so that I do not touch it.”
The human mind sure is fascinating and complex.

I played with TheBuckmaker a bit more. As I sifted through the themes I saw the approach of the RSS and I knew I had to have it.
Nice to see another who used it.
Just wanted to share.
Peace Out
