In case you’re not watching CNN…
Rochester, NH is the top news. Some crazy person has reportedly taken hostages with a gun and a bomb in the Hillary Clinton campaign office right here in Rochester, NH.
Yes, I live in THAT Rochester, NH. We live about 3 miles from downtown.
Princess goes to kindergarten less than 100 yards from the crime scene. Thank God I made the decision to drop her to ½ days recently on Fridays. She was already with me when her school went into lock down. The rest of her school and class must have been so scared.
BamBam was still at school. They were locked down for a while this afternoon. I couldn’t get to him.
I HAVE NEVER BEEN SO FUCKING SCARED IN MY ENTIRE LIFE!!!!
We are all home safely now, although I am not finished shaking.
Thank you to everyone who called and emailed to check on us.
This internet thing is pretty crazy. I came home to an IM from my cousin in France. She was listening to our local news online while IMing our cousin stationed in Iraq. We got to have a conversation. Unbelievable.
This is still going on right now. Our neighbor is part of the SWAT team. Please say a prayer…or think good thoughts if you don’t pray. Just send some good energy this way.
I’ll post an update when we hear more.
THE Mommy
Looks like the guy finally released everyone and surrendered. Thank God no one got hurt.
Hoping for a less exciting weekend!

Wow. Not being able to get in touch with your son. If that had been me, I don't know. Scary.
I'm glad everything turned out alright. I was watching Foxnews when the guy gave up.
Be well and hug your little ones a lot this weekend!
Hugs. Hold your kids tight tonight. This world is super crazy. Yes? Hold them tighter.
