I grew tired of cold showers even though they offered some relief from the heat. I need a little warmth to my bath water.

It took a few days but more and more businesses did open here after Laura, so hopefully more will open for you. Use of generators helped them to open.

I'm thinking of you. Keep up the check-ins, please!

I'd be happy to send you a care package of treats and goodies. Just let me know.
