How Lucky Are We?

Tad and I plus ALL of my folks are damn lucky. No major home damage. Just a few shingles off the roof and the fence is down, but we needed a new one anyway, not that we need the fkn expense!

We evacuated to my sister's and BIL's and boy was that sumpin'! Their house is gorgeous and the sister broke out a shit-ton of Halloweenie's and did lot's of decoratin' and I loved it. It was great seeing all of them and Tad finally meeting the BIL. I think he didn't believe there was one and that it was a figment.

We came home and my mom and step father's power was still out so they came and stayed with us for a week. I am so happy we were able to take care of them for a change, and tried to keep them on their routine as much as possible. I loved having them here. I know I'll remember these times in the future when they're gone.

As for me the 2nd chemo party went well this pat friday. No sickness....yay! PLUS the good ole Doc gave me ambien to sleep and that shit knocks me out for almost 8 hrs. It is miraculous! He says it's not habit forming but we'll see.

Tad worked his ass off cleaning up the yard and the neighbor behind us cut up all of our downed fence and stacked it on the curb, so now I'll have to stop bitching about his gunning his loud ass motorcycle in his driveway at 7:30a and then riding the thing almost every damn hour. It really was very very considerate of him and I'm going to have them over for dinner in a few weeks for a Thank You.

He and Tad are planning on rebuilding the fence soon. Just as soon as the HOA sends us a nasty letter I'm sure!

I put out a few Halloweenies and bought a few more so I may now have TWO boxes full of scaries! Watch out Jess...I'm gaining on you! *laugh* :P
