Recovering

Sep 15, 2017 | Rita

FINALLY!! We have power restored as well as our internet. It has been one of the longest weeks ever it seems. We are still a bit in the middle of cleanup but having everything back is awesome. I love grilling food but there is only so many grilled eggs a girl can take.

On top of that we had to entire an entire box of ice cream that was in the process of melting so needless to say I was not a fan. We had tree damage mostly which I am grateful for. Of course that now leaves me to clean up the trees or hire someone to do it. I did manage to break my wrist during part of the clean up but hey t could have been worse. I was mostly worried about Sam and how the storm would affect him. He pulled through beautifully and we only had one incident where his asthma got the better of him.

You Emailed Me

If you emailed me at all during the past week I am in the process of going through and answering all of those emails. It will take me most of the weekend because I currently have more than 30,000 emails waiting for me. I am working as quickly as I can one handed.

Where’s Your Review or Article

If you were scheduled for a review or an article I will making all of those up next week. If you are a brand or sponsor you can visit this page to see where you are currently in our schedule. If you do not see yourself on our schedule please email us and we will get back with you as quickly as possible. If you are listed there on this week while we have been out of commission those posts will be next week on the corresponding day. For example Monday will post on Monday and so on.

    It is so good to hear that you have power again and your damage wasn’t more than it was. I am not making light of yours in any way, but glad you have your home, etc.. I am so sorry to hear about your hand. Yes that would definitely slow me down. As you said life happens and you do what you can considering your options. I know it’s a great deal of work for you still left to do but I trust that NO ONE should be upset if their post is a few days late in light of the circumstances. I was going to ask which hand you broke but that would be one more question to answer so don’t even think about responding. You have enough on your plate as it is. You and your family are still in my thoughts and prayers and will continue to be as you recover and get back to some type of normalcy. Thanks for the update.

    Oh, no! I hope your wrist isn’t too painful. Glad to hear you’re otherwise recovering from the storm.

    So many people affected by weather this past month or so. If not wind and water it’s fires.
    Take it easy on yourself.
