Glad to hear you are ok! I did wonder but assumed that your part of GA was ok from what I saw.
Yeah, I think maybe you hit on it for me too because although I hadn't posted it, for some reason this is hitting me way worse than 9/11 did. Not sure why. Perhaps because it is so much easier to imagine Ed and I and the boys trying to survive something like that. God. Goddess. Ugh.
I keep wishing I could do more. We're so broke all the time but I did donate to both the Red Cross and the UUA fund. And today when Costco said "Do you want to donate to the Red Cross Katrina fund?" I couldn't say no. I keep thinking of us huddled in the living hell of the superdome, or worse... and trying to sing to the boys and make them laugh and assure them everything will be alright. Once it crossed my mind that I'd be glad they were still comfort nursing at night because it means my milk isn't completely gone and it might prevent them from total dehydration. Brrr...
At least some aid is coming finally. Sigh... HUGS!!!!!!
