Obsessed with technology for the home, we have lightbulbs that are controlled by a phone app. Home technology also allows us to connect those bulbs to other home technology so they’re voice activated and set on timers. One light in the living room (that I’ve not been in since Christmas 2-years ago except to clean) changed to red directly after I verbalized my plan to list the house in a week or so.
I’ve mentioned lots of times that this house belonged to my great uncle, Ted, prior to his death. Since I’ve NEVER programmed any of the lights to be red, it must be a sign Teddy is mad and doesn’t want me to sell his home. Either that or it’s a warning to Merida that if she keeps smooshing the couch cushion to see outside something bad will happen. Either way, Teddy has been whispering his mood and it’s 100% certain neither Merida nor I will heed the warning. 😉
Insofar as news you already know — the body found at the Carlton Reserve was confirmed to be that of Brian Laundrie. Moving on, I still want to know how and when he died. The parent’s lawyer said in a media interview that he was told by his client that Brian “was grieving” when he went for that hike. Grieving what? The parents knew what happened all along (in my opinion) and took their lawyer’s advice to remain silent.
It was (and is) certainly their right to remain silent — and people need to respect that. You can’t expect freedom of speech or expression, or the right to bear arms, while neglecting other constitutional rights. HOWEVER… now they are asking for privacy to grieve the loss of their son. Understandable, but a pretty big ask in my opinion. They kept silent and showed no compassion or sympathy for the Petito family when Gabby was reported missing. Now they’re asking for the same?
And finally, even if you have no real interest in justice for Gabby, you might like to know that if you die outside in Florida and your body is exposed to elements for 5 weeks, your corpse will be skeletonized. I had no idea.
