Susan has certainly been in my prayers all week and esp. in the last 24 hours with the lockdown in the Boston area. I hope she and all whom she holds dear are okay.

Yes, my sentiments too, rallycairn. I have been a bit out of the loop this week due to work overload but catching up with the news have been shocked to hear what has happened in Boston. Lets hope we hear from susan soon.

Thanks everyone for the kind thoughts...I'm fine, friends and coworkers too. So many, sadly, aren't....four killed and almost 200 injured....many still in the hospital with really terrible injuries.
I was off work on Monday, on a vacation day, so I found out what had happend via tv, like so much of the world. Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday it was a little tough getting on the train to go into Boston...you wouldn't have believed the security in the train station....police with dogs, and National Guard members ....everyone wearing body armor.
I didn't make it into work in Boston on Friday, they shut all transport into the city down before I'd normally begin my commute, so I wound up working from home. That, and watching the news anxiously. So glad they caught the people who did this, but it's still so unbelievable that anyone could harbor so much hate and destruction.
Hoping that tomorrow will bring a little more normalcy for most of us...my heart breaks for those whose injuries are so severe that life will never be the same again.
(a technical aside, I've no idea why the board turned the phrase "working from home" into a hyperlink....I didn't do anything different to make that happen?!)

Hi Susan, so glad that you and your loved ones are safe. It must have been a scary time for you and all the people of Boston. People who do such things to innocent people are the scum of the earth!
Re. the hyperlink thing, hope its not the case with you, but a similar thing happened to me and I think it was some sort of virus, I also started getting all these pop up adverts and this survey page also kept appearing. I installed something on firefox which blocks it all out, but its still there on explorer. You might have to do the same thing if you start getting all the other stuff too.
