Hi guys,
It has been a nightmare this week with terrorists attacking our favorite satiric newspaper & killing 12 and a small, suburban grocery store that I frequent being attacked, 4 clients shot dead and another large group held hostage for 7 hours then finally liberated by the special forces attack.
Friends texting asking if I am ok, in the shop and if other friends and family are safe.
I was in the tramway on my way there to take the subway.
We were blocked and detoured.
Many people were stuck in neighbourhoods in the area.
Other than the pain, sadness and horrors of the last few days...comes the question...what happens to us in such a situation? What happens to a k poucher? I know that this is selfish and stupid but while being detoured I was calculating when I last emptied my pouch and what I had eaten since and how long I had until I had to empty...and how long until 'not being able to empty' would become a serious problem.
The fact that I am writing this is totally 'irreal'...It feels like a nightmare and I am running through water. Not getting anywere. Terrified.
Thinking about leaving here for good and scared about medicare, insurance and being able to live in the States full time...
Sleepless night and terror in the morning.
Scared to death...the world is flipped on its head.
