I am still without power and cable and not projected to get it until Tuesday. Soon by comparison. Yikes!

But we only got wind damage and were spared the flood damage some of my friends and colleagues got. Can also move about in a community restocked with supplies quickly. I consider myself very fortunate.

I think I should probably quit my bitching about a 90 degree house.

Stay safe!!!! I hope relief comes soon.

stay safe and check in often!... samnsara Sep 2017 #1
