fru fru tea? Love it.

We are lucky we got a starbucks open here after cat 5 Michael tore hell out of our little panhandle (Red-45 loving) town.

Its been two years since Michael almost took Panama city out and just last week we got our decks and gazebo rebuilt after they were smashed by all our pine trees. Sally is dumping rain on us we don’t need right now, I wish I could send it to California to those poor folks. The damp makes my arm ache where the plate was put in from my fall when the tree came through our bedroom.

I can certainly relate to all the suffering now. Horrific and scary things happening. Like birth pangs, coming and going. When going through hell just keep going. At some point we gotta come out on the other side.

I have no intentions of giving up now.

Screw evil. I want to live.

I remember when Michael hit you. My son-in-law was sent over with FEMA to inspect damages. Like you, he was astounded at the damage with no reporting. He worked several hurricanes thru FEMA and still says that was one of the worst he saw.

That was also his last job for FEMA. He’s a Mr. Fix-It Redneck. Through the years working FEMA he would finish his assigned shifts then go back to help individual homeowners get immediate needs repaired. During Michael he got written up by supervisors for going to help on his own time. The last straw was because an elderly lady had a new washing machine delivered but the delivery guys just left the washer in her driveway. Son told the lady he’d be back that evening to get the washer inside and hooked up.

So his supervisor said if he went back they’d void his home inspector contract. He told them they might as well do it because that lady needed help. So, he took care of the washer, next day they still had work for him. He was over there working several more weeks BUT, to this day they refuse to pay him or reimburse him for his lodging/food expenses for that entire job. So no pay, he missed more than 2 months work at home, and they are out all the motel and restaurant expenses for that time.

You can’t tell me that’s not a bunch of Ovomit holdovers.
