I have the YouTube.tv subscription so I save stuff to watch there.
Typical situation for DH as mentor. Go to take care of transferring car to kid. First stop, insurance company. Insurance is cancelled. It isn't actually in kid's name as he just pays his uncle $150 a month. Uncle didn't pay the bill. So forget that insurance company, he decides to just go get the kid his own insurance. Do you have your license with you? Heck no, he doesn't even have a license, just a learner's permit. They have now gone to take his driving test to get him a license.
ltc's after school class was canceled today, but no one bothered to tell me until I should have already picked her up. So of course I see a call from the school and freak out a bit. ltc is cranky about no class, I'm still shaky, and now I have to reschedule my inlaws weekly visit because it conflicts with her rescheduled class. So we're getting ice cream.
My niece and nephew are fine, but there was a single fatality shooting at their school today.
Oh sj, it is all just too much.
I tried watching a bit of news and the newscasters couldn't hold it together talking about the victims in Pittsburgh, then I lost it. The violence and loss is just so overwhelming.
Oh man, sj. You need ice cream.
Laura, those kids are so lucky to have you and DH in their lives! (I mean, this kid today, but I know there are many others.)
High school shooting down the block from my MiL's house in Charlotte this morning. Modestly affluent suburban neighborhood, one student dead, one arrested, so apparently it was a targeted thing.
H (who is there) is a little freaked out and a lot sad and angry.
Classes are canceled the rest of the day, no news yet going forward.
I swear to god, my first thought was "Oh, that's good."
Jesus Christ, what is wrong with me?
Honestly I don't even know what to think right now. I'm glad my nephew and niece are safe, but someone else's kid isn't.
Well, hell. Fucking world.
