Feeling so sad

I am feeling so sad right now. I live in Los Angeles County and continue to be exposed to the news about the fires and their aftermath. I personally know four people who lost their homes. I am doing all I can to help them. This time has been traumatic for those of us who live here. Fortunately, there are a lot of people who are doing all they can to help. Tragedy brings out the good in a lot of people. Of course, a small sliver of the population will take advantage of the situation. I need to take a break from the news for m y mental health. This is hard to do because it is all around me. Please keep all the residents in LA county in your thoughts and prayers.

Hey punkster, I feel for you. I lived and worked in Los Angeles from 1970 - 2008. It is a place I will always love. I am now in another country. It breaks me heart to see the massive destruction, and it's ongoing. It's not over yet. Even if your area does not have an evacuation order, be mindful of the dangers of poor air quality and smoke inhalation. It can be very damaging. Come back here anytime!

I can't imagine what this is like. I'm watching it happen from the other side of the country and my emotions are all over the place

I'm thinking of you all

We certainly will do. I have family and friends in LA and for the most part everyone is alright. The sights and stories are tragic. Good idea for you to take some time away from the news as it tends to be worrisome so oftentimes.
