Please give...

I was working on a post last Friday when, well, you know what happened. Only the fifth most devastating earthquake of the past 110 years, the resulting tsunamis, and a more damaging nuclear disater than Chernobyl.

I have just given to the American Red Cross, through which you can designate where your money is most intensely applied. From my work with this organization, I know it is one that can be trusted.

I'll be back next week with more posts. In the meantime, I'm just grateful ever more for calm weather and a house that stands securely. My thoughts are with those with no home left standing at all because of this disaster. This could happen to any of us.
