The hurricane came after the earthquake which was a few days after the hailstorm and violent rain. The winds were scary, even more than those of November or February. I was up most of the night visioning a protective cocoon around the house. We had no idea of the damage all around us, just trying to keep the house dry and the kids entertained and calm. We were quite fortunate.
This week has been beautiful summer – blue skies warm but not hot, though today is muggy.Thunderstorms might come and another hurricane or flooding.
People are weary, we are exhausted, the cat has left. Wish things were normal again, though, like the riverbanks, normal may never be the same.
