Day 118

I’m on news overload tonight. I’ve been watching the footage and reporting from the tornados down south and I’m overwhelmed with sadness. Until October of last year I had no idea what it was truly like for your life to change in a heartbeat. I watched as reporters asked survivors to tell their stories and you could tell some were just lost and in shock and standing there because the only other option was to not be standing there. There are more than 200 dead, countless others homeless and still more among the missing. How do you go on from something like this? As a friend said, where do you even start?

I had to turn the TV off at about 9pm. I just couldn’t process any more. I finished watching season 5 of Brothers and Sisters on Hulu so I could delete my free week trial before I had to pay for it. I loved being able to catch up to this week’s episode but hated being subjected to commercials when I was paying $7.99 a month for their service. I managed to watch all 20 of this season’s episodes before my free week trial was up so I didn’t have to pay. I think my next show to catch up on will be Army Wives. My mother loves it and it’s streaming on Netflix, which I love.

I think I’m going to stay up all night to watch the royal wedding on Fox 29. Their coverage starts at 1am EDT. I may decide to sleep for a few hours and get up for CNN’s coverage, which begins at 4am. The space shuttle Endeavour launches for its final mission at 3:47pm EDT tomorrow afternoon so it’ll be a full day of monumental occasions.

Well I think that’s enough scattered thoughts from me tonight. Thank you for stopping by every day to read and comment. I love and appreciate you all.

With Much Love,
