A Serious Request


My brother and I. Aren't we cute?!


My brother and his family were evacuated from their home in Paradise, CA this morning because of the CampFire Fire. As far as he knows, they've lost everything. EVERYTHING. His home, all their belongings, all the memories contained within. Even our father's urn, which he couldn't bring himself to spread the ashes from yet.

From all reports, Paradise is completely gutted, burned to the ground. He'll know more when he gets back up there, though. He's a firefighter so he should get info sooner than the average person would, thankfully.

BUT. He and his family and their dogs are safe. And that is what's most important. I am praying for him and everyone affected by this horrible fire. I ask that you do the same. If you don't pray, at least send out positive vibes for him and everyone up there. They're going to need all the positivity they can get.

Thank you for reading.

You TV series

Wow, hubby and I watched You on Lifetime last night. It was creepy and suspenseful. Hubby likened it to Dexter , and I have to agree. Penn Badgley was on point - creepy, stalkery, but fascinating. I didn't think too much of Elizabeth Lail's acting, but I'm not sure if it was just that her character was bland, or if it was truly bad acting. Can't wait for next week!
