I have to say, I'm kind of thankful I was SO busy with errands out of the house on Friday. I only caught tidbits of the story on the radio, and I did cry in the car but told myself to get a grip because the kids were with me. My first thought was : People are sick bastards and WHY OH WHY?? I was also instantly relieved to have my kids home with me, despite being grumbly and ungrateful about homeschooling just that morning.
Then I spent most of the weekend in bed sleeping the flu away. I've tried to stay away from any news or media about it, because I know my weakness... I don't want to fuel the fear I already have about things that COULD happen... things that likely
won't happen. I have a vivid imagination and enough nightmares as is. Ugh. I just have to try to walk away from it. I've prayed for the families, and I am holding mine more tightly!!!
