Dish Garden II

We've had another person in the office lose a parent. Lots of sadness lately because we also lost a coworker unexpectedly. Coworkers asked me to make another dish garden. Such a tough time of year for plants unless you want mums. Only found 1 decent orchid so I just went with other tropical. Cant tell from the photos but it has lots of red in it.

Disapppointed, Shocked, & Disturbed

Someone I used to work with was arrested on Monday for child pornography. Trying to remember the "innocent until proven guilty" mantra and wondering what happened to this person. I know that everyone on the news reports alway say he was a devoted family man but this guy really was - at least on the outside.

This has clogged my mind for 24 hours now. Someone I knew and trusted could "possibly" have helped perpetuate sexual exploitation agaisnt children. I always thought it was strangers who did this. Not someone whose company you enjoyed and laughed with.

Kinda reminds me of my previous job where the Director embezzeled money. Totally broke the public trust, almost put a small non-profit out of business, and generally betrayed everyone involved with that entity. Both people have left coworkers stunned, confused, and disgusted.
