I hear they have a tiny reprieve with the wind. And that Bush is trying to make up for the blunder of Louisiana. I pray all will be found safe......((Belle))

If prayers and her awesome support can heal a body where the soul is already tender as can be then Shirley will continue to amaze us all with her recovery.

I posted this in Krys's thread in Open and hope okay to bring here also.
And thank you for the prayers for my son y'all.
My son is still safe and has not suffered loss. He said being there and not knowing when it will end with all that has been lost so far is so helpless it makes it hard to function.My prayers continue for all that are dealing with this horrible disaster.

I meant to go outside and look for it but I was so busy I dadgum forgot.

Bless your heart dear. It ain't like you don't have a family that you care for and an assortment of other things. Bravo!

Nostalgia I think:
Black and White
(Under age 40? You won't understand.)
You could hardly see for all the snow.
Spread the rabbit ears as far as they go.
Pull a chair up to the TV set,
'Good Night, David. Good Night, Chet.'
My Mom used to cut chicken, chop eggs and spread mayo on the same cutting board with the same knife and no bleach, but we didn't seem to get food poisoning.
My Mom used to defrost hamburger on the counter AND I used to eat it raw sometimes, too. Our school sandwiches were wrapped in wax paper in a brown paper bag, not in icepack coolers, but I can't remember getting e.coli
Almost all of us would have rather gone swimming in the lake instead of a pristine pool (talk about boring), no beach closures then.
The term cell phone would have conjured up a phone in a jail cell, and a pager was the school PA system.
We all took gym, not PE.. and risked permanent injury with a pair of high top Ked's (only worn in gym) instead of having cross-training athletic shoes with air cushion soles and built in light reflectors. I can't recall any injuries but they must have happened because they tell us how much safer we are now.
Flunking gym was not an option... even for stupid kids! I guess PE must be much harder than gym.
Speaking of school, we all said prayers and sang the national anthem, and staying in detention after school caught all sorts of negative attention.
We must have had horribly damaged psyches. What an archaic health system we had then. Remember school nurses? Ours wore a hat and everything.
I thought that I was supposed to accomplish something before I was allowed to be proud of myself.
I just can't recall how bored we were without computers, Play Station, Nintendo, X-box or 270 digital TV cable stations.
Oh yeah.... and where was the Benadryl and sterilization kit when I got that bee sting? I could have been killed!
We played 'king of the hill' on piles of gravel left on vacant construction sites, and when we got hurt, Mom pulled out the 48-cent bottle of Mercurochrome (kids liked it better because it didn't sting like iodine did) and then we got our butt spanked.
Now it's a trip to the emergency room, followed by a 10-day dose of a $49 bottle of antibiotics, and then Mom calls the attorney to sue the contractor for leaving a horribly vicious pile of gravel where it was such a threat.
We didn't act up at the neighbor's house either because if we did, we got our butt spanked there and then we got butt spanked again when we got home.
I recall Donny Reynolds from next door coming over and doing his tricks on the front stoop, just before he fell off. Little did his Mom know that she could have owned our house. Instead, she picked him up and swatted him for being such a goof. It was a neighborhood run amuck.
To top it off, not a single person I knew had ever been told that they were from a dysfunctional family. How could we possibly have known that?
We needed to get into group therapy and anger management classes? We were obviously so duped by so many societal ills, that we didn't even notice that the entire country wasn't taking Prozac! How did we ever survive?
LOVE TO ALL OF US WHO SHARED THIS ERA, AND TO ALL WHO DIDN'T- SORRY FOR WHAT YOU MISSED. I WOULDN'T TRADE IT FOR ANYTHING

Still praying here as well.
And I'm so sorry Dan.
I've not heard from my son since last night and pray no news is good news.
-
Thank you for your prayers for my son, he sounded different than I've heard him sound before, including having gone through an earthquake out there and fires in the past.
The state doesn't need this disaster, our country has seen too many such things of late.
My prayers for all continue.......
-
Praying for all, which includes my son out there.
He said it was reported there was an arsonist adding to the disaster.

He could keep a woman on a deserted island having only a CD player and his CD's content. Well I reckon she would need a lifetime supply of batteries or electricity as well. :)

May it be your best!

Both Sudo and Rick know things a hundred times better than I do but if I can be of help I certainly am willing. I can just imagine the things you have with your history.

I don't post on many prayer threads but pray for all of them and it just thrills me to see some of the miracles we have seen since I joined this board.
