Too many strange things going on anymore

For all of you that are wondering, Andrew is fine. He was already gone this morning when everything happened at Pillsbury. He had to have just missed it though. The man that was shot worked in maintenance with him on the same shift. He didn't know him very well, but he did know of him. The phone has rang a lot today with people checking on Andrew. The news has made it statewide...probably will be national news. We have had multiple phone calls from the plant today also. Originally they were going back to work on Thursday, now they are not. There are meetings tomorrow to talk about when they will go back to work, if maintenance with go back before production, etc. I'm just thankful that he wasn't there when it happened. It would be awful to witness something like that. He was going to work over this morning because they needed some things done, but he decided to come home to work outside since it didn't rain. Also thankful that no one else was hurt. It was target specific. He's not saying a whole lot, but can tell it has hit him hard. I seem to be the bearer of bad news here lately.

  1. I know this has to be hard on Andrew. Thank goodness he was't there. I was thinking Andrew worked there but,I had forgotten which job Andrew actually took when he was looking for work. It will be hard to go to work and feel safe for a while, but after a while it will get better.

    No more bad news, please.
