Good morning from Ridgeland, Mississippi. I just got power restored last night. I've been to work every day this week, but can't go today because I have no gasoline. I spent two hours in line at 4:30 a.m. yesterday, and three hours last night. Both times, the stations ran out of gas before I got to the pumps. The rescue people are having similar problems, so I'm just going to stay home until gas is readily available. I want to help people, but I don't know what I can do because I have no means of transportation and no food. All of our perishable food spoiled, and we have eaten all of the non-perishable. We walked a couple of miles to a store yesterday, but it was closed because they have no electricity. I'm not complaining, however, because I and my family are so blessed. If we get hungry, neighbors will share something to eat. Our home is relatively undamaged by the storm and I have air conditioning again. Please pray for all of those less fortunate people who have lost everything. Thank you.
Prayers for those who are suffering and have lost so much..I know you are glad to have electricity again..I know how difficult this time is for those who survived but cannot buy what they need..
I'm hoping the neighbors of my 2 aunts in Purvis will be as kind (I believe they have some church friends, so I believe this is the case).
One thing I'm concerned about, is when I checked the weather report yesterday around 1pm, it indicated the temp was 92 feeling like 100.
Glad you got your AC back, and hope they get theirs soon.
Welcome back online!
Get over to your church walk over there if you have too, You'd be surprised what they are doing right now.
And they'll have food.
God Bless you
