Purrs for East Coast
Purrs for all the cats and their slaves that live on the east coast. Looks
like there is going to be some heavy rain and wind from the storms coming through. Ann |

"Ann" had some very interesting things to say
about Purrs for East Coast: Purrs for all the cats and their slaves that live on the east coast. Looks like there is going to be some heavy rain and wind from the storms coming through. I saw that at work today [temp assignment]. I was talking to someone in PA and we lost our connection, then I couldn't call him back for several hours because I couldn't get through. When I did get in touch, he very apologetically explained that there were major storms in his area. Could have been worse. I still remember the time last December I was on the phone with a tech support caller and suddenly said something like "Oh my God", while scrambling under my desk. Said caller did sympathize when I explained that we had an earthquake in progress. -- "The universe is quite robust in design and appears to be doing just fine on its own, incompetent support staff notwithstanding. :-)" - the Dennis formerly known as (evil), MCFL |

Ann As one of the possible recipients of Frances, after receiving Bonnie, Charley, and Gaston, thanks. Fortunately none of them were that bad by the time they got here.

Thank you all very much for the purrs and the thoughts, they mean and have
meant more than you will ever know. My very dear DH, David, is an over the road, 48 state truck driver. He was not here during Charley. We were very lucky and suffer no damage, just annoying things. David is now home to finish up the little Charley stuff and to meet Frances head on. Before getting our stuff together we committed to helping three neighbors who were not able to do for themselves. Oh, my the first one didn't work out well as we found Frank on the side of his house trying to put up the hurricane shutters, which we told him we would do, he was unable to walk, had difficulty breathing and was giving us inappropriate answers to our questions. I called 911. Frank was taken to the hopital David finished putting up the shutters, I put away the tools and called his daughter. Off we went to do our second good deed which was to help and adult daughter and her 80 year old dad nail down tarps over the existing plastic and tarps which covered the $50K worth of damage done by Charley. Marva and David did the work on the roof, Dad is the gathering of the supplies, I toted the items up the ladder and climbed back down except for the last climb down when the ladder slid out from under me. Hit my forehead, chin, glasses hit the bridge of my nose, a few bruises under my upper arms, nothing on my torso, hips, pelvic bones or thighs. But the knees, shins, ankles, feet, toes! Right knee cap is broken, left knee cap is swollen and black and red. Shins are a collection of cuts, concrete rashes, contussions. And one, only one of my toes is black and blue. I am suppose to be lying down resting this leg, which of course I am not doing, which is driving my DH mad as he has so much to do. I'm wrting this at about 10 of one Florida time so I can get it out before it gets to rough here. We are getting some wind and rain now but not expected to get the "big stuff" until later. Thank you all for your thoughts and mine go out to the other central Floridians. Charleen |

And I was just listening to them talking on TV about so many of the hurricane related injuries being people getting ready for and cleaning up after. Sounds like you have had quite your share and a few neighbors worth already. Hope you don't feel too horrible after the adrenaline wears off, and that the storm passes you by. Jo |
