the week after

The past few days have been rather hectic. I’ve been catching up on my studies, which took a back seat over the week, and tackling my project pile from the office. It’s been a slow process to get back into the usual rhythm of work and school after being out for so long.

One of my coworkers shared with me that her family evacuated early last Monday morning. They stayed at Qualcomm for several days while awaiting the news that they could return home. They were lucky — they had a home to return to — while a dozen of their friends were not and are now faced with relocating and rebuilding their homes and their lives.

SignOnSanDiego.com reported today that the seven fires that swept through the county last week have burned some 368,000 acres and destroyed nearly 1,600 structures, with damages estimated to be about $2 billion. The good news is that the last three fires that are still burning — the Harris, Witch, and Poomacha fires — will be completely controlled by next Monday.
