I meant to mention the dreadful earthquake in Haiti - which sure as hell puts all one's problems in perspective. That's the trouble with blogs and with having been ill - you become so bloody self-centred. I just wish there was something I could usefully do apart from give money. You poor poor country, poor mothers, poor fathers, poor orphaned children. Poor separated and amputated families. It breaks your heart doesn't it?

just awful, and like you, hubby and I were just talking last might about what more we could. The originl donation seems so trivial...
I wanted to post on Haiti as well, but what could I say that hadn't been said by everyone else already? It is so difficult to process how terrible it really is - but I feel good that my country is doing its best to help by providing people and food and aid, using my tax dollars to do it. And Haiti will need help for a long time to come - so besides the money I am donating now I hope to find another way later on.
We're going to cut you slack just this one time....
