Well, I had no power for a day and a half.
Damage? Some.
House.
Lost some shingles off the roof. Some other nondescript things blew off the house. Some water came in the back door on the carpet.
Front Yard
My two trees in my front yard went visiting the neighbors. Didn’t hurt their house, actually may have done them a favor, the branches held their shingles on!
Back Yard,
Shed doors: Smashed. Smashed. Smashed.
It was a nice trampoline while it lasted.
Aftermath.
Ants, bees, ants. loooooong lines to get in Home Depot. looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong lines for gas. Super Duper Extra Unleaded Gas for like 2000 dollars a gallon.
And in the end we lived and came out pretty well compared to many who lost all their worldy possessions and others who got cast into eternity. I’ll write more about it when I get my thoughts together.
Oh and thanks for the kind words and prayers. I figured somebody would notice me missing from the blog. Just not so many.
That’s a long line.
Best to you as you get things back together. Now if only Bushitler would sign the Kyoto Treaty, we could be rid of such calamities forever.
well, if nobody else is going to say it…
….um….that thing about the….something of spacemonkey…
…like, the something of something…his catchphrase. it escapes me right now. it’s like a question or something.
never mind.
Thank God you are alright.Things would not be right here without you!
spacemonkey survived! yee-ha!
BTW, if you can’t find your wallet, I think Mr. Simon might have it …
Glad you’re okay!!
Glad to hear you and yours are okay.
Glad to hear all is reasonably well with you Spacemonkey!!
VERY glad!!
Orion
Very happy you and yours are well.
Make sure you get some extra gravy in your system.
You’re going to need the energy.
Glad to hear you made it.
I prayed to God, “Woe! Be this not the end of spacemonkey and family!” And He listened!
Sorry for the damage, but glad you’re doing all right.
Wow, what a nasty storm. All that death and destruction (luckily not for you). I expect offers of aid and relief will be pouring in from the International Community very soon.
Hurrah for a safe Spacemonkey!
a wet spacemonkey is better than a gone spacemonkey.
Glad your alright!
Yay for the soaked but surviving Spacemonkey, the big question is did you get anything good during the looting?
Glad to hear you’re all safe and sound!
Woe is right, what a storm! Glad you’re OK.
He’s alive! He’s alive! Yay!
I’m with Brian, did you get anything good??
Seriously, thank the Lord you and the family are ok.
crap, i can’t believe i wasted toner printing out hundreds of resumes sent in by your potential replacements . . . oh well, i hear laurence has a bad cold, so maybe it was not all for naught . . .
Why were you “In Line” at Home Depot, Space Monkey? From up here in Minnesota it looks to us like all you people down there do is just bust in and hava-heepin-helpin whenever you feel like it! Glad you made it out ok!
Think Bush and Barber are to blame for this like little Bobby says? What a dusch bag!
Sorry forgot to send my handle
Glad you hear you made it through a little wetter but a lot less dead! Seriously though, good to know you and yours made it through relatively unscathed!
Looting? Not in Mobile, We have better class of multi-colored trash here.
I was in line to buy a fan for to move the hot humid air around with.
