The Writer’s Workshop

My thoughts are clouded by tears because I still can’t look at photos or videos etc of that day. We got up fairly early, living in Houston in an apartment. We had to take our shitzu into the vet so we were getting ready, and I sat down on the bed and turned on the news. What I saw was incredible. I told my husband that can’t be an error, there’s another one crashing into a building! After that the sickening sounds I’ll never forget of bodies landing on the pavement as people tried to escape out their windows. I have not even seen the memorial. I’m too old and too emotional to relive it. My oldest son lived in NYC at that time and of course we were worried about him but heard from him soon. So, no I try not to think too much about it. The way Trump is going I wouldn’t be shocked again by such an event occurring.
