Thanks Gals but I am OK....

We fared really well during the big blow and I do me big.
Lost some shingles, lots of limbs and pinecones but no Real damage except I was a little frightened. Not a lot because I was steady taking my Prozac.

It was the Heat that finally got me. Tuesday night Ms Maddie, Daisy and I slept in the car with the AC running. I decided then my fat ole body was gonna melt if I didn't get the heck out of dodge. Daisy and Ms Maddie said, "yes MOM get us to some where cool." We left around 11:00 headed North; arrived here in Del. last evening and I was finally able to get on the internet for a little while just to let a few people know I was still alive and kicking.

We will stay away till the power is restored which may be as long as 2 months. Sure hate to be gone that long but I am not gonna suffer that heat and deprivation if I don't have to.

All my family fared very well and are all doing great. Tanya and Randy have gone to Tex. to take Pam and Kids some clothes and things and to bring back water and gasoline for the generators. Randy drove in from Va. on Tuesday bring a boat load of water and gasoline . Tanya's neighbors were all happy to see that come in and they were happy to see me leave because I cleaned out my freezer and they all had a big cook out. I even had cooked gumbo frozen in there so I was glad to know it didn't go to waste. I brought my shrimp and crabmeat up here and we are going to make gumbo tomorrow.

Will check in from time to time.
