Just Me

Jeanne is now a Tropical Storm. However, let me tell you a little secret - I think someone forgot to tell HER. She's still here blowing away. Now, not like this morning or when I was in the eye wall, but it's still flickering the power. The wind is strong enough that since I checked a half hour ago, the neighbors solor blanket for the pool, rack and all, has blown through their pool screening. (Hmm, maybe should have put that in the garage, don't ya think?)

The new lake behind my house continues to grow. I'm not worried about it reaching all the way up here - but it's about 5' deep now.

I hear my roof moan and groan. I keep hearing things hit my house. It's the flippin' neighbors trash cans and garbage. I wonder if fate is trying to tell me something - throwing trash at me like that.

The natures preserve behind the house has been thinned out. Drastically. I'm afraid I may not see my eagle anymore. He was still around after Charley and Frances, but it was much worse around here this time around.

They are saying on the radio that the worst is over for me. I wish I could see that for myself. It's not that I don't trust them, it's just that I don't trust them.

Anyway - that's it for now. I'm gonna check what I can find around here and see how my Bucs are doing out in LA. I don't remember what time the game is but I still need to think about something other than this storm and how my friends are.

Damn. Just Damn.
