I was listening to the radio this morning, had on my usual station. The morning DJs were talking to people, not doing their usual schticks ... it was comforting.
A woman called in who said she lives very close to O'Hare airport, and is used to hearing planes fly overhead, and that she's an Air Force brat. She heard a sound yesterday that she hasn't heard in years.
F-16s were flying overhead ... protecting our country ... protecting our freedom ... telling us it was safe to sleep, that they weren't going to let anything happen to US on THEIR watch.
SO A HEARTFELT THANK YOU TO THE MEN AND WOMEN OF THE AMERICAN MILITARY FOR MAKING ME FEEL SAFE, SECURE, AND HELPING ME GET THROUGH MY FEAR. THANK YOU FOR PROTECTING MY FAMILY AND MY FRIENDS. THANK YOU FOR BEING THERE.
Thank you everyone for the thoughts and prayers - I'm right there with you all, praying for sanity.
