My good friend (and angel here on earth) Missy has been struggling for a long time under the thumb of an abusive, alcoholic husband. She’s getting herself and her 5 kids to safety today, going to a shelter. I’m so proud of her for taking this difficult and courageous step. More info at MadPriest’s blog. Pray for her. Think of her. There may end up being a hat passed too. PLEASE don’t post to her blog about this right now.

jase, thanks for passing this on. it was so frustrating not to know what was going on because she didn’t post stuff like that on her big fish blog. i hope she’s safe by now and her kids are with her and supporting her decision.
i’m on IM right now but you seem to have wandered off. catch me if you can!

Thanks for posting that, Jase. I gathered there was something going on but had no idea. Yes, she’s pretty much an angel here on earth, as you say, and extremely intelligent one.
