My Little ‘Burb

September
20

I just have to say how sad I am. The slain postal worker that was killed the other day in his Mamaroneck apartment was actually my postman—and was really nice. I mean REALLY nice! Didn’t mind my barking dog, always had a friendly smile (or piece of advice: he grew up in the area); and loved to talk about the Yankees (at least with my husband: I’m from Baltimore and so remain a tried and true Orioles fan).

It’s just so frightening and horrific. And, of course, a subject that I had to discuss with my children. Real life yet again infiltrates my little ‘burb, proving that crime happens everywhere.

    Boy – your kids are getting a lot of life lessons lately – this should help underscore the importance of safety at home, a lesson that hopefully they learned with the balloons, but a little reminder never hurts.
