I woke up, as many of us here in the USA did, to the news about the London bombings. I’ve had a couple of emails expressing concern about my sister who’s working there. I’ve been emailing with her all morning and she’s fine, as are all her friends.

I haven’t heard from my friend Veronica Schaones. My fingers are crossed. Update: she’s safe in France. Phew!

I’m hoping that your family and friends in London are fine. I can’t imagine what those people whose family and friends aren’t are going through. It’s too horrible to think about.
