I had planned to write on another topic, but the event in Las Vegas changed that. Listening to the news and what's been reported on Facebook, and other social media outlets, is heartbreaking.

Last Checks – Are You Prepared?
We are now at T-minus &* this is the last day they are saying we need to prepare. It's been raining on and off since early this morning; I look like a drenched rat as I've been taking my outside patio and plants in. I tried to board up windows but my 'help' did not …
