The other day I was telling a colleague that the hospital chaplain had asked about her....
She starts to tell me the whole sordid tale of how her husband's cousins/nephews were so terribly sick....like making it from the Gulf coast to Chattanooga via Savannah....I was looking at her, THINKING, 'come ON lady! get to it!!!!' while scalding myself for not being more upset about the two kids bad health.....SHUT UP WOMAN!!!!

I am bad, I know! :(
 
can't wait for......6PM today?
Man, I am tired....oh, crap, just realized, I need to do a splash and go on my way to work....:(
 
This week I get to babysit 3 dogs :)

My dog jack, and my neighbors two dogs; a golden retriever and great Pyrenees.
(I was talking to the neighbor and he said be was visiting family in a different country) I cant remember which... for the most part I was distracted thinking about breakfast.
 
Today is good day to eat breakfast in bed and pretend its still Saturday and not sunday
 
had sciatica flareups monday and tuesday. made for some really long days.....
 
I was sitting in the stands watching my kids participate in a sporting event this evening but I couldn't help but think of the 2 men that got up this morning for another boring Weds day shift and they will never go home again. I'm sure they were making plans for lunch before this happened. Perhaps thinking about dinner with their families tonight or weekend plans with their loved ones or even needing to attend their own family event this evening. Two men that were sitting in roll call a few hours prior laughing with their fellow officers. I think of the other officers their friends that got the call to come help their fallen friends and the terror, anger, helplessness they must fell. Wishing that police car was a little faster and the traffic would pull out of the way that much quicker. I think of families that this morning worried about silly things like remembering to pay the cable bill or we need new tires on the car and now they are planning a funeral. I'm angry and heart broken. I wonder if sometime over the last 15 years I crossed paths with these deputies maybe in a class or talked to one on the phone. I can't understand why this happens but I will not back down. I will not let evil win. When the tones drop I will answer the call.
