Returning to normal........
Well Gang......Things are finally returning to normal as today the kids finally went back to school...YIPEEEEE!!!! Okay maybe the kids weren't so happy but parents everywhere were! The Grocery stores seem to also be returning to normal as they are now getting regular deliveries....That was the hardest thing in the aftermath...Items still flew off the shelves as soon as they stocked up....Well except for Lima beans and beets....for some odd reason there was a full shelf! :) Go Figure! I was happy to be able to buy Pork Chops and Hamburger!!!....
All in all life is slowly returning to normal around here...There still are several people without power...one is my co-worker....I hope she gets it back soon...I have to say that I am very happy to see all the Electrical workers that have come down to help people restore power...I have seen trucks from Texas, Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee, North and South Carolina...All came to help...Hats off to those guys!!! I don't envy their jobs...The B/S they must be getting from hot cranky people...Yeah people are complaining about how long it is taking...It's not easy when you have to first fix the transformer that blew or replace a line, or fix a Power Pole....It take time to get it all done....and done right....Anyhoo....To the states helping...A big round of applause!!!
We all breathed a HUGE sigh of relief to find out that Ivan was not coming near us at all...She is however going to a freind of mine who lives in Bonifay Florida right up in the panhandle in a trailer home no less! UGH! ..spoke with her last night and she's heading my way...invited her over for dinner when she gets here...
Well I guess that's all for now....Back to leading the boring life that I lead!!!!
(I like it that way ;) )

Glad to hear that things are getting back to normal.
While I'm not in FL, I still haven't put my guard down as we seem to have a very "angry" Atlantic ocean to contend with this year. There are storms swirling around all over the place.
Yes I know...."Shut Up Stacy!"
My knack of announcing the obvious is one that I cannot seem to overcome. LOL
I noticed this morning that we now have a hurricane whose name starts with J. I have the distinct feeling that I will shortly have a namesake swirling in the Atlantic.
Glad things are getting back to whatever passes for normal in FL, Tig! :)

But, I love lima beans ... *grin*

Yeah I'm keeping a watchful eye on Jeanne...
I just hope that we DON'T get to "K" and "L"!
Rhonda......I'll be more than happy to send you a case of Lima Beans!!!! "Grin"
I'm glad Ivan decided he wanted to visit the Gulf instead. I hope no more come your way.
BTW, I like lima beans, too. But you can keep the beets (gag)!
