The Universe certainly does move in mysterious ways…
Let me first confess that I’ve been participating in some mental torture over the last week. Last weekend I got a really bad sunburn (remember the stinky pile of poo?) For the first several days, the physical discomfort had all of my attention. Once that began to …

Yesterday afternoon I learned that the man who killed Evie passed away over the weekend. According to the attorney general, he died from complications of the burns he suffered in the attempted murder/suicide (you can click here for more information.)

Last night I had my first normal night of sleep since Evie died three weeks ago.
