I'm praying for Louisiana, and all of those people stuck on the road. All of our neighbors have been coming out and visiting. The neighborhood is 25 years old and has never flooded, even in Alisha and Allison. My husband spent the whole morning with his rickety old chainsaw, trying to down a maple tree that died at the beginning of summer. Our neighbor came out and asked him why he was using a butter knife, and brought out his GIGANTIC chainsaw and downed the tree single handedly in 5 minutes. It was spectacular. Everybody's taking care of eachother and it makes me feel really good
The only place where people are becoming animals is at the gas station and at the watermill.
I feel especially good because Ophiura
is right around the corner from my parents and it just feels good to know that one of my very best friends and my family can get to eachother if they need to.
Our house has become Noah's ark. My husband's sister stopped by with her daughters' turtle, hampster, and rabbit. We've got two dogs, two birds, my fish
, and soon to be mother in law, father in law, brother in law, and friend with cat. I am stocked up on Claritin, as I am allergic to everything with fur. Crap, inlaws are on the way now, so I must clean like a mad fiend. :scared:
Thanks for the thoughts and prayers, they are indeed needed and very much appreciated...especially in Louisiana.
