I spent much of the day online with members of the new diaspora, which meant I spent part of the day in tears, part of the day filled with sheer angst, and part of the day cheering all the survivors who are out there seeking those who are still trapped not knowing what they might find behind the next closed door but opening it anyway and there are more than you might think who stayed home caught by their own sink or swim attitude and if this post starts to ramble just know this... but for the grace of ~ well, I am not sure how to finish that sentence anymore but tomorrow I'm packing up three boxes of toys and books and clothes and sending them off to three different addresses with a hope and a prayer that someone there at the receiving end will forgive me for being so damned late. |

I'm OK, Dixie, just terribly frustrated, the same as everyone else who watches this tragedy unfold. |

Kacy~ 'solar plexus' direct hit~ If you drop me a note ... I have one of our own who now has a temporary mailing address where you and others can (if they wish) send some articles of assistance~ As she wrote me .... "keep it basic ... for we have nothing but our lives at this point." When I get home this evening, I can respond with the mailing address~ Your heart is big, Kacy ... so many choose to just rant and not really do much else in the way of assistance ...~ I'm so truly thankful for those who do by taking action .... making it happen~ I'll be in touch with you and also with some others who have asked~ *Huglets* ~*Marge*~ ~*When the heart grieves over what it has lost, |
