Thanks Joni! The prayers are working.

Kelli Jo, Please take care of yourself and I hope you will soon be able to return home. I am sorry to hear of the disaster affecting you .... I hope things will be brighter for you soon. Take care. - Beth

Thanks Beth. Day by day things are getting better.

I am so glad that you are ok and that you didn't lose everything. Most of all it seems you kept your positive attitude and outlook on life. I gripe about little discomforts of life. A tragedy such as you are experiencing makes me realize just how blessed I am and how grateful I should always be. Bless you and yours!! Love, Diane

Thanks Diane. Even those of us who have gone thru this feel blessed. Especially from all the kinds strangers who have helped us. I came home to clean the last few days, and am heading back to AR tomorrow, praying that Rita leaves us alone. Even with 3 days of cleaning the yard and still not being done, I am still thankful. Take care.

Are you still in AR? Where at? I'm originally from there, and if you need anything, I can let my family know to pass it along to you! Get back to me if there's anything you need or want! Andi

Thanks Andi. You are too sweet. We came home last week. I already miss AR. Everyone there was so nice and really took care of us. Now we are in reality and it is a mess here. Right now I am okay. The few things I needed folks have mailed to me. The stores have a shortage on most everything as everyone has to replace even the smallest things in the house. We are just taking it one day at a time. I tell you what, I will always go to AR for any evacuations. I have gone there the since last year, and always feel welcome, and the hotels there take my pets with no problem. I have also heard wonderful things about Tenn and TX, and GA
