It’s kind of interesting looking out your window and seeing a news truck, camera people & a reporter doing a live broadcast and watching the broadcast on TV at the same time.
I also had no idea just how noisy news trucks can be. There’s this loud, humming sound coming from across the street. Sounds like a generator.
2 weeks ago there was a gas leak and a house on the block behind me blew up. The explosion was so powerful, everyone on my block, including myself, thought it was in our own house. That’s how badly our homes shook & how loud the blast was.
Now they’re having some sort of community meeting in the school across the street with a bunch of politicians and the local utility company. I guess I should be there. That is, if I wanted to sit for 2 hours and listen to a bunch of garbage.
Frankly, they can tell us all they want about what they’re doing to make sure this never happens again and that I’m safe and my house isn’t going to blow up but I won’t believe a word of it. And I’m pretty sure it’s little comfort to the husband & 3 kids who lost their wife/mother in the explosion.
That is horrible. I hate to hear stories like that. We have a pretty nasty story happening near me. A woman was divorcing her husband and he broke into her house, poured gasoline on her and held her against a wall as he set her on fire. She lived through it but is in very bad shape. She is a school and a sunday school teacher here so she has a lot of prayers being said for her. He got burnt pretty badly too just trying to keep her from escaping….but isn’t nearly as bad as she is.
That is so frightening. I pray you will all be safe and an extra prayer for that poor mama and the family she left behind.
