Like this cardinal that is able to fly away from danger, I wish we could pick up our lives and just fly away. The convict is still on the loose and we are right in the middle of it. He has been on the loose since Thursday, it is now Sunday. He escaped into the woods about 2 miles away from our place. I have to say that TDCJ/TDCI have done a good job of trying to make us feel as safe as possible. The worse part of the ordeal for me is night time. The escaped convict just started serving lifetime stints for murder (pick axe) and attempted murder. He is reported to be connected to the Mexican Mafia. I spent the first day watching out the window knitting with a shotgun on my lap. My brother has renamed me “Granny Clampet”. Of course that is a funny image, but believe me there is nothing funny about this.
All of this has been a bit distracting. The Cardinal on this post is the last thing that I have been able to work on. I really need to get in the studio and start working on several projects that I have lined up and ready to go.
Please do me a favor, pray, send energy and love to end this ordeal in the most benevolent way.
Susan.
