Not so bad after all

I can't help but think back this morning to the moans and groans of frustration after that series of snowstorms hit Colorado beginning in early December. Roads were virtually impassable - leaving many of us confined to our homes for at least a copule days with (gasp) our families. We weren't sure how we'd manage especially with all that last-minute Christmas shopping left to do.
Reality Check.
It now all seems pretty trivial as I think of the folks dealing with the aftermath of a swath of killer tornadoes across the Southeast United States yesterday. People dead, families torn aparts, lives shattered. We're pretty lucky here - the weather natural disasters are few and far between and rarely deadly. I'm keeping those people of places like Georgia and Alabama in my thoughts today.
