"Ooooh, goody, dutchess! A Pet Thread!!
Yes - it's really me, Binky Boy.
God made me special, and sent me to live with my Mom, LadyX..:)"
"Actually, she sent me to The Finest to test the waters, absent for 2 days, and hoped if I eased in her apology, you perhaps would accept it."
"Fact is, she had a few trying days, out of town for one of them, and was waiting to hear from my Uncle Steve and Uncle Kevin.
As you know, the eye of Hurricane Wilma passed over Uncle K's house in Florida with 113 mph winds, and the top of it in excess of 100 mph pounded Uncle Steve."
"God sent miracles to both of them, Uncle Kevin's power back on today (although he had a generator and was able to cope) and the *only* damage was to the screening on his back porch. Close by neighbors had their whole porches demolished!"
"The eye of the hurricane and breaks between bands gave intervals of relief for Uncle Kevin, but poor Uncle Steve 50 miles above him fared worse."
"Their intense winds and side-driven rains went on and on without ceasing until it skirted out to sea.
Considerable damage was done to his new house, but his power came back on quickly in his northwest of the city residential area."
"Permission for Mom to safely enter??"
Hey binky!!! Glad to here your "mom" is okay as well as Uncle Steve and Uncle Kevin! Tell her she's "safe to enter" - Love - Giz
Lady X! I am sorry your sons have hurricane damage..
I love these pet threads!
I'm in.
Hi, Binky and Maggie. Know you are relieved to hear that one of your sons had only minor damage from Wilma, and at least the power wasn't off for too long for Steve and family - that itself is a blessing. Glad to see you back today. Just c'mon in. :)
Hi, Lady!
Glad to hear your boys came through the storm relatively unscathed. The Lord indeed sent a miracle.
Man, what a hurricane season. I'm exhausted and so deep into a flare I can hardly function. No rest for the weary!
The good thing about a laptop is you can freep from bed. I'm lovin' it!
Hope you are doing okay.
Binky Boy sure is puuurty.
Thanks for the ping LadyX.
