Sitting here watching surveyors and workers prepare to cut down the lovely wild area behind our house. :-(  The environmentalist in me wants to do whatever it takes to keep the developers out. The pragmatist in me knows it will do no good, this is north Texas, after all. GRRRR!
They are supposed to leave a greenbelt area with trees, but we'll see what happens.

Takeaway:  Us creatives should channel situations that get us riled up into chapters.
