Spread the loveToday was a great day for the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University (aka: Virginia Tech). The Hokies rebounded from the beating they received from Miami two weeks ago and POUNDED our arch-enemy, the University of Virginia. Not only did we win hands down, but Miami also lost to Georgia Tech. That gives…
Spread the loveOne of my favorite movies in the world is “For Love of the Game” which is based on Michael Shaara‘s posthumously published novel of same title. During Billy’s game, in order to concentrate his pitches against the opposing batting Yankee lineup, he says to himself, “Clear the mechanism.” With those three words, the…
Spread the loveHey there! Bet ya thought I was going to stop writing for good, huh? Here is the quick (okay, not so quick) and dirty lowdown of the long weekend for you all after we dropped off the bunnies at the petsitter. And on Friday, I received my Project Spectrum postcard from my partner…
Spread the loveI updated my post on Simon’s arrival this past Monday. I added a couple of the photos to my original post I took the photos off the site, but here is Abby’s email to the family: Subject: Simon Patrick has arrived:) Greetings to all, Simon Patrick was born Monday, January 9th at 11:50…
Spread the loveEver have your dominoes fall into line perfectly? Or have you received something unexpectedly wonderful? This month had a couple of downs, but this week a couple of ups literally threw us “into the black” ink of life. Because of the good news, I had wanted to delay writing my post which now…
Spread the loveThe silence on my website since July 2012 has been on purpose. When I began independently working as a contractor, I was exploring various options (what I enjoy calling “Making Eggs”) of marketing in the fiber industry. Some of the options required me to keep a public face, others required me to stay…

People are SICK!!
How distressing – I am so sorry.
We’re all just stunned.
I can imagine what Blacksburg is going thru – we’re 50 miles away!
(((hugs)))
Yikes! How scary!
That is horrifying! Our thoughts and prayers are with the victims, families and students; I can’t even get my mind around the whole catastrophe.
You have my sympathies. It was a shock when it happened in Great Barrington, too. And you know you can’t do a damn thing about it having happened, really, other than try to help others deal, and yourself.
That said, anything I can do?
What an awful story. My thoughts are with all the victims.
I saw this today on the Internet at work. The numbers kept going up and up and the day went on.
They are still trying to identify bodies. Can you imagine if you were a parent waiting to hear?
This is so awful. I’ll do some chanting for them (and you) at the Zen Center tomorrow night.
Ugh! Horrible! Sorry…don’t know what else to say…
I’m so sorry. Listened to the NPR coverage yesterday in stunned silence. Can’t grasp what went on in his mind. So many families grieving…
I can barely fathom this tragedy as an unconnected stranger. You must be in a rough spot. [hugs!]
I’m still in shock. How can one person kill 32 others at one go?
My prayers for the innocent victims.
Oh, no! Such a scary event made more horrible because you have a connection to the place. I’m so sorry. Take care.
Oh my gosh, I had no idea you are an alumni from there. It’s such a sad and disturbing story – and I’m sure it’s a million times worse for all who have gone to that school. Take care of yourself.
It took me until this evening to remember who it was that I read who went to VA Tech. I’m so sorry for how it’s going to change how you feel about your school.
So senseless…tough to wrap my head around this tragedy. Hug a lot of bunnies.
Oh, Kimberly, I’m so sorry. I was worried about you and the storm when I didn’t hear from you (about that silly sock yarn swap) so I checked your web page. I hope you don’t mind. This is such a devastating, impossible thing to understand. What a tragedy.
=( This is absolutely dreadful. The shock must be immense for you since you are much closely connected to VT.
I have no words….
Awful and unexplainable.
