Today was our office Christmas party....we also received our bonus's....I was really happy and excited to receive $1400! $200 more than last year.
Our festivities were dampened by the tragedy in CT. I am in just such disbelief. You may have heard about the shooting in the mall in Portland, earlier this week? That's one of "my" malls. A day later, my great newphew's high school (across the river in the Vancouver WA area) went into lockdown due to a gun scare.
I can hardly watch the news or read the articles on the internet...it just makes me so sad.
Excitement tampered by disbelief

I still don't have words for what happened in CT. It's just one of those things that make you stare wordlessly into space for a very long time while you try not to cry.
