I try to stay pretty mellow and sort of "removed" from the news. Tonight, though, I was browsing through the headlines on my homepage and two stories on the main news feed caught my eye because both stories were from Utah. Utah County, to be specific. Not really Happy Valley.
The first was about the woman from the Provo area who gave birth to and then killed seven babies. Well, she killed six of them and the seventh was stillborn. All the babies were found stored in plastic containers in her garage. How f'd up is that? It just makes me sick. Meth-head.
The second story was about a policeman who drugged and raped his wife repeatedly over some length of time and then killed her, their kids, his mother-in-law and himself with his service revolver. What the hell?
This is why I stick to the sports page. I understand that there are bad stories relating to sports, too, but generally if I just skip to the sports and entertainment sections, I'm a much happier person.
GRR. Now I'm going to have to play games on Facebook to cheer myself up.
Maybe this will help, too...
It's getting closer and closer to beach time!!

The world has a lot of people who have a very screwed up life. We can't just hide from these people. What we can do is appreciate and love the people we like. We can change things in our life so we are a better person, without being a crusader. Happy thoughts will help.
There are so many weird people on this planet and I think Pappy1 said it so well. Love the people we like. And try to be a good person self. That is so wise.
I sometimes wonder what have made them that way to be able to do such horrible things.
I'm happy for your vacation that's coming up. I hope you will write and post lots of photos.
Love you! Take care! And I send you manga pussar och kramar.
Mia :-)
