Thank you Robyn
Thank you Robyn for allowing me to post in your blog! Not much to say today. What a day it has been. Glad to hear that your friends were home and are safe and sound. My friends in Manhattan work miles away, so the were not hurt. It still is so ... surreal. My prayers go out to everyone around the globe, as I feel in some way this will effect us all.

Is this really happening
I went and looked up the following photo in our online album just to try and process all of this. I can't believe I've stood atop a building that is now complete rubble -- it was bad enough knowing I'd driven past the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building on a frequent basis -- but to know something I've stood in while so happy, to the very floor, is now a part of one of the worst events in American history. It just does not seem possible...the footage just looks so "Hollywood"...your mind can't wrap around it!

Ironically, we have two friends that worked at the WTC -- and both stayed home today. Lynn wrote to say that Michael had planned on going into the city late today because they stayed up late last night talking about and planning their move to Texas. Another pal from high school, Chase, stayed home from work sick today. Jon wrote to let us know that Carrie had talked to him and he's ok in Brooklyn. I don't think I've ever prayed more in my life -- including the OKC bombing. And I don't think I've ever wished that I had an American flag to fly more than this very moment...

Unable to comprehend
I've had two weeks of sleep medication adjustments, and I slept 14 hours last night -- waking up just about 30 minutes ago. The world -- at least our world -- literally fell apart while I slept. I am so sad...and in shock...I guess just a bit delayed from the rest of our nation. Thankfully Chel and Ryan are having everyone over at their house tonight so we can all just cry and try to cope together. I don't know what to say...for one of the few times in my life...I just feel speechless.
