Just Another Manic Monday
I think I have used that title before. Actually I am sure I have.
Things have become explosive and volatile with Skot. It's actually quite surprising. He was seemingly the level headed one for awhile, and me the impulsive, over reactionary selfish one. These days the roles have totally reversed and sadly it's taken mediation and police involvement for him to see things my way.
I feel the desire to be more crafty. I'm a secret etsy window shopper. I always find myself thinking, "omg, that is so cute, but I'm not spending $25 on that, I can make it way cheaper," or a thought of similar nature. I want to get more in touch with my inner crafter. Perhaps with these cooler and more festive months ahead of us I will unleash that beast!
Hurricane Irene did quite the job on our area. It was a tearful drive though town today. It's so crazy how some homes are ok, and some homes are flooded past the first floor windows. We drove past one property today where the porch had detached and was floating in the front yard. My family and I have remained very lucky.
This is RIGHT DOWN THE ROAD FROM US:
And this is near the town where I grew up:
This is from our town:
And this is from OUR STREET:
It saddens me so much when I look around, and then I realize how lucky my family and I really are. We were totally prepared for the worst, and it was pretty bad. I know we'll be prepared for next time as there is always a next time.
