Not a great way to relax…..

  • How's this for an email to get from the university your daughter attends and at which she is a member of the police force and is on duty?:

    **JFK Library has been evacuated due to a possible bomb threat. Updated imformation forthcoming as it becomes available. Everyone, stay away from JFK Library.
    **

    Then I get a text message from her saying, " 'I LOVE YOU' ", just in case this goes badly".

    VERY STRESSFUL couple of hours.

    All is well now, the library has been searched and cleared…but oy. Suddenly I HATE that she chose to go into Criminal Justice.

    Ugh. Ugh. Ugh.


  • OMG! I can only imagine how stressful that was…Glad to hear all is well now.


  • Good God! How scary! Glad everything is okay!!


  • I think that is for sure a mother's worst nightmare! Well, one of them anyway. Glad she is safe & everything is clear!


  • OMG…the e-mail would have been bad enough, the text message would have had me over the top frantic. I'm SO glad everything turned out alright.


  • Glad to hear everything turned out okay. I agree that the text message would have sent me over the edge also.


  • Yeah – it was not fun for me.

    SHE, on the other hand, called me late last night all excited about it and how this will go in her record as an "experience" which will help her when she's job hunting.

    oh. yay.

    I love them. They are, of course, where the voting goes on. But I have been there for years. For the last 3 yrs part of my daughter and my gifts to each other is the gifts that give. Each year I have given her a certificate from buying a stove.. well here it is. She varies what she gets me.

    That is too cool!!! It is impossible to watch without smiling. (even though I found myself worrying for Bailey when he/she disappeared in the snow.) I think the dog is "Bailey the snow mole"! Thank you for sharing that morning smile with us. Pat

    Nice. Katie was kind of put off when I told her I was going to name Zaire a Swahili name, but she came around when I explained to her what the name meant. Nyonda Zaire Usharifu "Beloved Nobility of Zaire" <g>She is proving not to be much of a talker to me, but oh boy does she chat with Charlie if she thinks he is ignoring her. :D</g>

    @JazzysMom: …but God and Rielly showed her who is really in control -- he was born almost exactly 24 hours before the scheduled C-section! hee hee I told her, 'Welcome to parenthood. Now you know exactly how much control you have over your life. " hee Now that is funny!;)
