I'm so sad about the mall shootings in Omaha. That's an area that's just way too familiar - too similar to where we live, even if there's quite a difference in size of our town versus the city. It's never easy to lose a loved one either, but the horrific nature and time of the year just seem to magnify it. No one we know was killed, but I haven't heard back from everyone yet to find out if they were there and/or injured. So sad.

The weather today is awful for traveling, and I hate to think of Cory slowly making his way home tonight. We went out this morning for Accalia's haircut, and at that time the main roads were more wet than icy.

The bright spot in the day - Cory will be home at 6 or 7 and we'll have him for the entire evening! Yay!

Oh, Diana! I do miss having your light and wit here in South Dakota. I'd try to convince you to come back and move to Yankton this time, but it sounds as if you have a pretty sweet deal out west!

And Rach, I do hope you and Millie made it through the nature center without any problems! Silly cousin.
