Armageddon

 

Police presence all day across the street because there was a drive by shooting at 4:47am.

What the freaking hell?!

Eric and I both woke up to the sound.  We both knew it was basically in our front yard.  Soooo loud.  I say six shots.  Eric says five.  Neighbors are reporting 5, 6 and 7.  Some neighbors have been contacting me privately because they didn't seem to like me saying it was the problem house across from us.

But....IT WAS.  There are bullet holes in the house and car.

It's staggering to me that it's not being talked about.  That it's not on the news.  I don't want to put myself out there further.

Life just carries on.  Kids are unfazed.  The three kids didn't even wake up.
Luk was interested enough to wander over with us for photos of the holes after it quieted down over there.



Eric said there were a few cop cars earlier.  I missed that.  Jia and I were out most of the day running errands.

It's just way too close for comfort.
There was no sleeping after hearing the shots, car leaving and a man shouting.  Eric could see him walking on the street with his phone out.  By the time I came downstairs the lights were all on.





Hiding his face.  Awe.
He is doing a bit better.  Marked improvements.  He's not out of the woods yet.  We are settling into the syringe feedings.  He is starting to willingly go along with the weirdness.

Appreciating seeing the perfect rainbow this morning as Jia and I headed to the lab to do routine blood tests after dropping the xmas cards off.  

Shopping.  Haha.  When your almost 16 year old brings her bear to town.

Fei missed being here in the war zone.  She finished her term and last exam and now is in Vancouver with friends for a couple days.  They got to do puppy yoga!  Although Fei reports she did very minimal yoga ;)
