Big Deal! It snowed. Then you went back home and back to your lives.How many homes were flooded for weeks? How many homes are now uninhabitable? How many homes are still without power, 5 months later? Big Deal, it snowed!

How many homes? How about ENTIRE parishes and ENTIRE communities?

We had an ice storm here a few weeks ago....nearly a quarter inch of ice on the trees. Branches fell in the driveway and on the deck, the power was out for THREE HOURS! It was horrible, we didn't get any help from anyone! We pulled ourselves up by our bootstraps and moved forward (and that wasn't easy hanging onto our bootstraps) but we didn't whine! Well, I whined a little because I missed my soap, but I'm sure you can understand that. If we can do it, you can do it! </sarcasm>

Sadly, the sarcasm will be lost on most, if not all, of the posters who think they understand the scope of the damage in your area. Keep up the good fight!
