Watching Closely

To all of our Louisiana, Alabama, and Mississippi friends, you are all in our thoughts. Let's hope this thing slows down.


Let's All Hope For The Best..... Posted by Picasa

For the rest of us who want to donate to the relief efforts in the devastated areas call 1-800-HELP-NOW which is the Red Cross hotline. Or go to their website.

We are all quick to help out the rest of the world, now let's band together to help our own people.

    This will be one of the biggest hurricanes to ever hit the US.

    Wishing those people well.

    Waiting for a great book
    As the fall season approaches, the book world is still searching for this year's great American novel.

    I don't think the Gulf can stand another pounding.

    Thanks Charlie for the info.

    Happy Monday, by the way!

    I have relatives in both Alabama and Mississippi, I hope everyone is ok, sounds like a bad storm. I don't know how anyone can live down there, seems Florida and the other southern coast states keep getting hit and hit and hit over again. I hope the storm isn't as bad as they think, and my hopes and prayers go out to everyone in its path.

    The fury of Mother Nature is a force to be reckoned with. Very scary for all those people. I hope they get the animals to safety as well.

    Why that's a great idea. I made it through Opal in 1995, and a couple of typhoons in Guam, and believe me, IT'S NOT PRETTY!

    I feel realy bad for them. The worst part is yet to come. Here's my shameless plug on what I went through. It wasn't pretty, and it tested every relationship I had.

    Donating towards relief efforts is a great idea Charlie! We are getting Tropical Storm Rain and Winds here in TN today, but nothing like what happened further south!

    Dear C-Mac,

    I came across your blog through my sister. (Hi, Luisa!)
    I think like you: we should help others but never forget we have problems in our own backyards that could use some help, too.
    (And when I write 'help' it doesn't necessary mean money, OK?)

    I live in Portugal (South of Europe) and this year it hardly rain.
    We had great forest fires and many lost everything.
    Wanna trade some worm whether for a little rain?!
    We sure could use it.

    Hope everything turns alright for everyone.

    Read you soon.
