That Thing

Do you ever get that feeling - you know the one in the pit of your stomach. Like you're going to puke?

Just reading the news lately gives me that feeling. All those school shootings. There is no rhyme or reason. It is a scary thing. Today Sabrina tells me they are having "lockdown practice" at school tomorrow. My boss's kids school is going to security guards at the one entrance that will be open. Best be prepared for the worst I suppose. Last spring we watched a night soap where there was a highschool shooting - Tabitha was overwhelmed "mom, I'm going to highschool, could it happen there?". I guess its not just highschool, it can be any school or workplace, any time. I didn't lie, I said the liklihood was small of it happening, but stuff does happen. Lockdown practice **sigh**, its like the first time we had a fire drill in our high rise office tower after 9/11. It just gives you a bad feeling.

God help us all make the most of everyday, love the ones we're with and not to sweat the small stuff. Life is too short.

How true. The world has changed. It made me so sick to hear of the Hutterite school shooting. So totally senseless..

I meant Amish school, not Hutterite.
