I was sad because I had no shoes until I met a man that had no feet

I was feeling pretty bummed about the heavy rain that made for slow commute times today, both morning and evening.  And then I stopped wallowing in my own self-pity and remembered that the place from which my family and I recently relocated is experiencing the worst flooding in 50 years.





Almost 300 people have died due to flooding in Thailand over the last month.  Not as widely reported are the almost 250 people who have died in Cambodia.  Barely even reported are how many people have perished in the floods in Laos.

Please stay safe, dear friends and family, you are in our thoughts and prayers.
