Jeanne Lock down, Will Miss DU
Another storm comes to town, and my place is buttoned up and ready for the fun. Last time a storm came our way it was eight days of no power. Thats no air, the worst is no DU or news or all of your posts. Last time this happened the dam polls went to hell and I had a headache for a week. The IP will be shut down tomorrow in the AM so I'm going to get a dose to last me for a week or so tonight!
Cheers everyone!
Wishing all the FL DU'ers the best, take care.

19. just got my phone service back
15 days no computer, and no phone, got our electric back on the i8th. Feel like we have been camping, and now a third one to go thru. our debris piles were finally moved tuesday, just in time for more!! I am so tied, I want to just sit and cry! Had to drive 75 miles early this morn to bring my mother here, afraid the storm will finish off her place.
Jeb had the right comment today he said he felt like Bill Murry in groundhog day! We all do, I sure hope this is the last one, I've lived here 42 years and never experienced this much hell!
