Glad you and Mazzie are OK. The homelessness thing is a big deal. The large scale study they just released in California is interesting, about causes. And I agree, the cost of medical care is outrageous. The book “Evicted: Poverty and Profit in the American City” is interesting too. The cost of rents and housing is too high. As a landlord I routinely rent my properties for under market value. My dad did the same thing. And the cost of housing is going up. It is crushing people. It feels like greedflation.

Glad you and your quadruped companion are ok!

I was born in WI and one of the few childhood memories I have from there was hunkering down in the basement waiting for a tornado to pass. I wasn't scared either, but it was memorable! Especially re-emergence into a neighborhood that looked... well, like a tornado tore through it! Such a crazy experience.

Gosh, where have I been? Thank you so much, Jan, for mentioning my post about medical debt—it should never happen in our country.

I am so glad you made it thru this dreadful storm and you and Mazzie are safe...with a little help from your friends. You are so right—so much more time and media attention must be spent on the real tragedies that happen every day.
