so Hurricane Ida happened

[tigriswolf]

i lost power around 9:30 pm on Sunday; got it back sometime last night. everyone in my immediate circle lost power at some point but only my parents and lilsis still don't have any. my uncle has a bunch of branches and limbs in his yard but none on his house. fences, powerlines, trees, signs -- stuff is down everywhere.

and it was only Cat2 winds here.

my parents had a very tall, somewhat large, dying tree removed from their yard this summer. if they hadn't...

and let's not forget, there's still a fucking pandemic and fuckheads who trust facebook hearsay and clickbait over science and think they can control women's wombs while not wearing a mandated mask.

*sigh*

2021, you haven't been much improvement over 2020, i gotta say.

So sorry to hear that. We're far away from Ida and have only been peripherally aware of it. I'm glad you're okay!

I'm so glad you're safe from Ida, even if the Trumpeters are still whinging and trying to scarf down horse dewormers rather than wear a mask and get the vaccine *siiiiiiiiiiigh*

Yikes! Glad you and yours made it through and hope the clean up goes safely and swiftly.
