Thinking of the Events of 10 Years Ago
Ten years ago in September I lost my Aunt Charlotte. She had a heart attack after we came home from a local fair. It was strange to lose my aunt. Nine years later I would lose my mother. Now I am alone in the house. Ten years ago this Saturday will make 10 years since Hurricane Sandy struck the area. I remember the wind howling. It would have been my Aunt Charlotte's birthday, but she had just died on September 2. I was thinking that if she were alive we would have been eating birthday cake in the midst of the hurricane. Instead, we were in the house and being boed. My mother made me take the dogs outside in the storm. This December will make 10 years since the Sandy Hook massacre. That was very sad. I feel upset that such a thing happened.
