Ann Posted August 25, 2005 Posted August 25, 2005 Well, it looks like my area is getting ready to brace itself for yet another hurricane. My home is now in the area with hurricane warnings. The actual hurricane watch is up as far as Vero Beach (15 minutes from my office.) We are closely monitoring the weather today, as this thing shoul hit in the early morning hours tommorrow and our office is right on the river. Get this....I have finally had almost everything repaired from last years storms. I have a new roof, new tile (replaced soaked carpet), new drywall, new paint and my new garage door is scheduled for installation tommorrow. If we have any wind at all, the old door will be located in my living room, as it is barely hanging! Of course, I know the new door won't go in tommorrow because of the weather! Oh well, guess I need you guys to pray me through Katrina now!!!You did a great job praying me through Ivan, Charlie, Frances and Jeanne. Quote
Patkid Posted August 25, 2005 Posted August 25, 2005 Prayers, Ann. I have a son in PCB, so we always watch and pray. Pat Quote

pecola Posted August 25, 2005 Posted August 25, 2005 Ann, I have been thinking of you since the new path came out last night. I have to tell you, I'm still so hurricane weary, I just burst into tears when i saw the 11:00 pm broadcast last night - and I know ours wasn't nearly as bad as yours last year. For me, it's the fear, infinite-seeming power outages, heat, and mold that just wore me down last year. We just got everything back in order, so I guess it's time to start over, LOL, *big sigh*. But things could be so much worse, so I'm shutting up my whine-trap, LOL! My prayers are going up for you. ~Gina Quote
Treebywater Posted August 25, 2005 Posted August 25, 2005 Praying! You let us know how it goes when you're able! Quote
sues Posted August 25, 2005 Posted August 25, 2005 Here's saying a prayer for you and everyone else in the path of the storm. I grew up along the coast of NC - I know how awfull those storms are. With a lot of luck, the storm will wear itself out before it hits land. Saying LOTS of prayers . Stay safe. sue Quote
cindi o'h Posted August 25, 2005 Posted August 25, 2005 yes. Be safe above all else, Ann. Tape all the windows. I survived Iniki and Ewa. We had rolling blackouts after Ewa. Hurricaines are okay one time. After that, they get old.... so sorry you are going through this again. Cindi o'h Quote

gail p-m Posted August 26, 2005 Posted August 26, 2005 I'm saying an extra special prayer for you and your family. gail p-m Quote
Nushka Posted August 26, 2005 Posted August 26, 2005 Ann, It looks like most of the damage was to trees falling, wires down and rain. I do hope that you didn't get any really bad wind or rain. If your power is out, hope they can fix it soon. Keeping you in my prayers. Nina Quote
Ann Posted August 26, 2005 Author Posted August 26, 2005 Well gang, thanks for all of your prayers! You prayed that hurricane right away from me! We are having a lot of rain and that is expected to continue throughout the weekend. Looks like I'll be inside do this may be an opportunity to catch up on some house cleaning...ugh!!! Just keep up the prayers, as our meterologist says there are three more systems backed up in the Atlantic. Quote
Jyoung20 Posted August 26, 2005 Posted August 26, 2005 I am so glad you were safe. I will keep those prayers coming. By the way, could you do a rain dance for us. We really need some rain. Living life, Jamie Quote
