Hurricane Wilma Update-Please Read!!!!!

[OB-waN offline]

Dear LF members,

In the aftermath of Wilma, I am without power and have been for a week now. I'm at my friends house writing this and I still have no power at my house and the power will not come back till Nov.11.

The storm hit real hard on last Monday and my 'hood is so bad.....it looks like a bomb hit it!!!!

That's why I haven't been here for the last week and it looks like this week is going to be the same. 1.3 million people lossed power on Monday and today it's getting better everyday. I woke up because my house was shanking the wind was so huge and powerful. Funny thing, I fell asleep during the last part of the storm, witch is the worst part of a hurricane. My family is safe, I'm NOT dead as I pictured many of you guys here thinking of me as. I'm kinda mad that no one even remember me and that I live in SOUTH FLORIDA, even after I told you like 15 times even from back at TVT, but it's cool.

So the power people are now saying Nov. 11, with is better than the first time of Nov. 22, sadly there was NO Halloween in South Florida so many kids when without candy and sadly there will not be a big Thanksgiving or even a Christmas due to people having to fix there roofs and homes. But that's life I just thank god I'm safe.

I just know that all the little bull you guys go through each day is nothing, remember that it could be you in the dark for a week going on two, it could be you having to go to FEMA to get food and water, and it could be you praying to God things go back to normal.

But it WASN'T YOU, so stop crying and be happy that God blessed your life and your safe and sound....that's all I care about right now is my family and you guys here. Great to see Erin fixed up the place and I did the newsletter thing, maybe when I come back I can see if Erin will let me help her with said paper.

I Love all of you guys here and miss each one of you. I even made a list of my friends and I kiss it to keep myself somewhat happy. I'm so bored, you don't even know what bored is till you have to sit in a hot, dark house with little to no food and little to no water. We just sit and do nothing till dark and go to sleep at 7. But, this is good for me, I am working out my problems and getting myself ready to come back here.

I miss all of you guys, but I miss Ray and Erin the most.....I dream of you two girls everyday and everynight. I know Ray is praying for me, thanks!

And to Erin, when I get my power back I have a letter to give you, it's something nice. (Still got my laptop with full power, but I need power for the the wireless internet to work)

I miss you guys so much, LOVE YOU!!!!

[TL.]

I feel so sorry for you. I remember the time my computer got fried in a storm while I was on holiday (the very same storm passed over us in France). TB3 and I were cut off from the net for ages. I cried when the repairman didn't turn up after he promised to come!

. I went to Florida once...arrived at Orlando in a tropical storm...not a good start. But I can hardly compare it to a hurricane. Hope FEMA (is that right) sort things out soon.

I know how you feel, during Hurricane Isabel last year I didn't have power for a week, it sucked. I hope everything gets better for you Oddboy.

D*mn, that sucks more that I can even say. And I though I had a bad day today, but this is nothing to that. I really hope it all works out for you.

You'll be in most of our prayers (and all others effected by this).

Thanks for letting us know you're okay! I'm glad you're alright. That's an absolute shame about Halloween and the rest of the holiday season. It's awful that there's so much pain during a time when there should be joy and good will. I truly hope things will get better for you, and once more, it's great to hear you're okay. Stay safe, OBoy! I hope I'll see you around LF soon!

Dude, that WAS ME last year September and October after Ivan hit, except that we stored enough water to tide us over until the supply returned. Actually we caught the rainwater that came off our roof in the rainy days after the storm winds. and we were eternally thankful that Ivan didn't blow our water tank off our roof!

Uh.. wow. That has to seriously, seriously suck. I don't know what it's like to lose power.. I'm not exactly in hurricane country here (Ohio doesn't get much these days..)

Yeah, I know you don't miss me cuz I don't know you that well but I just wanted to say that I'll be thinking of you every time I hear about Wilma and I hope your situation gets better.

Was it necesary to bump up this old thread? Locking until Star Way decides the opposite.
