We were living here in Stepford -in a rental. The Husband still loved me. He had been employed by WorkYouToDeath, Inc. for about a year and had just flown out to California on a business trip a few days prior. I thanked God all week he had not been flying that day.
My mother, to whom I no longer speak, was visiting from The State of MyBadChildhood.
My children were babies, and I wish I could rewind and raise them then with the self-aware mommy I am now. My television stayed on 24/7 for days, as I'm sure yours did too.
I cried a lot, as I'm sure you did too.
Say what you want today, I really liked my President that week. He made me feel safe and cared for.
