Ok, so, kind of crazy.

There was a shooting in Midland this weekend while we were there visiting the cousins.

I hesitate to use the term “mass shooting” because it has been so politicized.

(I mean, we can’t even agree over how to define a “mass shooting.”)

This was a mass shooting.

From what I can find, 7 people died, and 17 more were shot.

We were about a 10 minute drive away from it all as it was happening.

We never really felt in danger – but there was a bit of an erie feeling in the air while they were still trying to catch the guy.

I am so glad we were all safe. I am so glad you were safe.

I love you.
