Can you believe this? Hurricane Jeanne has a bulls eye on Port St. Lucie.
All plants in under cover again tomorrow. Rot is a problem. Hurricane
panels almost completely up. Mealies tried to invade, as did scale, but we
found 'em.

Yeesh. I haven't even got this cast off yet, and now it's time to get hurt
again, LOL.

Be well, all in the path. Kenni, batten down the hatches!

the tornado's & floods. We have had no rain since Feb. but then we

Without humor, we lose spirit:
You might be a Floridian if:_
You exhibit a slight twitch when introduced to anyone with the first
names of Bonnie, Charley, Frances or Ivan {or Jennie lol)
Your freezer never has more than $20 worth of food in it any given time
You're looking at paint swatches for the plywood on your windows, to
accent the house color
You think of your hall closet/saferoom as "cozy"
Your pool is more accurately described as "framed in" than "screened in"
Your freezer in the garage now only has homemade ice in it
You no longer worry about relatives visiting during the summer months
You, too, haven't heard back from the insurance adjuster
You now understand what that little "2% hurricane deductible" phrase
really means
You're putting a collage together on your driveway of roof shingles from
your neighborhood
You were once proud of your 16" electric chain saw
Your Street has more than 3 "NO WAKE" signs posted
You now own 5 large ice chests
Your parrot can now say" hammered," "pounded," and "hunker down"
You recognize people in line at the free ice, gas and plywood locations
You stop what you're doing and clap and wave when you see a convoy of
power company trucks come down your street
You're depressed when they don't stop
You have the personal cell phone numbers of the managers for plywood,
roofing supplies and generators at Home Depot on your speed dialer
You've spent more than $20 on "Tall white kitchen bags" to make your own
sand bags
You're considering upgrading your 16" to a 24" chainsaw
You know what "Bar chain oil" is
You're thinking of getting your wife the hardhat with the ear protector
and face shield for Christmas
You now think the $6000 whole house generator seems reasonable
You look forward to discussions about the merits of "cubed, block and
dry ice"
Your therapist refers to your condition as "generator envy"
You fight the urge to put on your winter coat and wool cap and parade
around in front of your picture window when you finally get power
