My World is Overturned

I thought that Katrina would now be found only as a side light of a story that would fade into the collective conscious of "churn and burn" media memories. Not so. Today we find that Brownie was exchanging emails with his handlers about what he was able to purchase at Nordstrom's while he was on his watch in exile in the aftermath of the disaster in NOLA. Someone else will have to carry water for that part of the Katrina, Rita, and Wilma stories except for how they affected me personally.

My continuing story has to do with my adopted daughter and her taking leave of family and home, going on the road and ending up in the belly of a beast that is otherwise known as "the mental health system."

We must however start at the beginning.
