“November’s sky is chill and drear, November’s leaf is red and sear.”

I'm sitting here sipping my morning coffee-out of a coffee mug, thank you very much
The kids are all at school and the house is quiet except for Cowboy's soft snores as he naps in the recliner and the tinkle of bells as the cats try to kill each other.

“A sibling accidentally sending another to the hospital is a stark reminder of the unpredictability of life.”

We had a little incident yesterday.

We bought son 2 & 3 airsoft rifles for Christmas, they shoot soft, plastic BB's.

 #2 is 14 and #3 is 12, they've had BB guns since they were barely able to toddle, so no big deal we thought.

Husband took #1 out to practice driving, #3 was with him.
I was in the kitchen washing dishes and had left #2 and Daughter watching cartoons in the living room.
I hear a blood-curdling scream from Daughter, so I run into the living room and #2 said he had accidentally shot her in the eye.
