On a personal note, at the bottom of our hill the school bus caromed off a car. I rushed down and the kids on the bus were fine, so was the little baby girl asleep in her car seat in the car. Praise God. I was holding that baby earlier that day. The adrenaline rush didn't want to go away...I was restless for hours after.

"I think your homework scared off the class....where IS everyone?" Just bouncing down the avenue, looking for fun and feeling groovy.
Oh, sorry. That's caroming down the avenue, today.

Sudden ice syndrome? The other morning it iced up a little north of the city and someone slid and overturned. Her two small children were crushed. So sad.

My heart has been caroming from one emotion to another in this turbulent beginning of 2013.
