Body Count

Some reflections on my weekend:

What do you get when you are forced to work more than 14 plus hours a day for a week? A very tired lawyer who ran three red lights on the way to work and nearly killed herself.

What do you get when a running chainsaw makes contact with the face and neck of a deaf six year old? 200 much-needed stiches.

What do you get when a broken swing set meets the tender head of a two year old? 7 staples.

What do you get when a three year old's newest bestest friend gets on a plane for Japan? A very depressed baby boy.

Three absolute casualties, one near death experience . . . How was your weekend?

Oy! My prayers are with you and those poor kids! Hope you ALL recover quickly!

Please tell me you weren't the one wielding the chain saw or owns the swing set?

On second thought, I'm glad my weekend was a little dull. Good grief!

Wishing you some well needed down time. And a box of Band-Aids.

Running stoplights? From a lawyer? Surely you jest!
