Well its after 6 so I guess the power is still out?

Well fortunately for me, we have power back. It is hit and miss in my neighborhood though.

Got home about 1:30ish and immediately fixed the temporary fix for the dog. Chicken wire and a staple gun are my new best friends. Had a bit a of a hole at one end, and I covered it by stapling a downed shingle over it. Woot.

DrewsMum is going to help me with the Blue Roof, and tomorrow is going to be clean up in the yard.

I've talked to insurance people, FEMA people, handymen people, mortgage people. I have a list going in a notebook so that I can keep track of everything.

I can hear the marching band in the school behind me practicing, so I suppose things are slowly returning to normal. Nothing can keep these kids down. They practice constantly, and nothing so insignificant as a storm is going to keep them from practicing.

Thena, Psycho Dog, has not left the bed since we got home, I think she is doing her version of comfort zone.

We are certainly blessed.
