Hurricane Dorian....

[Daniellesparkles]

We’re still watching we’re hoping it moves somehow

It’s possibly gonna hit FL as a category 4.

We’re as prepped as can be

I’m a bit anxious

Mom spoke to The gas company and they said we could use the stove but to make sure to always turn it off when done

But I’m still skeptical

And I really dislike that idea

—————————————

Plus our backyard has a

Lake

also paranoid about that too.

I hate hurricanes

To everyone also in Florida stay safe.. x

I’m there with you. We owned a home which was hit by Charlie in 2004 (BIG BIG DEAL in Charlotte County). In the ensuing years we built our dream house (which we lost to bankruptcy and foreclosure during the recession). We ended up in a mobile home park and my depression/anxiety kicked in.

When Irma was knocking at our door in 2017, the preparation time threw me over the edge. That’s when I reached out for professional help. The possibility of another loss was debilitating.

The therapy and meds are working, but I’m a bit anxious about Dorian. We are preparing (shutters down, cash on hand, water, gas, personal papers ready to take in evacuation plan, etc).

One spot of humor is a meme I found on FB that said something like “Waiting on a hurricane is like being stalked by a turtle.”

The waiting time triggers my anxiety, but it’s still a ways out. I feel worse for East Coast people.

But there was life after Charlie (and Andrew, Michael, etc). And some very positive results have come from all of them).

Stay safe. Lynne

I pray for Florida, I agree with you, I live in an electric type townhouse, only my water is gas. Even if it's turned off, gas pipes can still crack? I'm guessing you're family has decided to stay? I live in California, I'd rather deal with earthquakes than have a hurricane season. Take care

Are you on the East Coast?

[Daniellesparkles in reply to LilyAnnepuppy]

Yeah...

[LilyAnnepuppy in reply to Daniellesparkles]

Hopefully Dorian will stay off shore enough. The models are looking like it might. I’m on the West/Gulf Coast and we may luck out. Prayers are that you do, too.

[Daniellesparkles]

Yeah I hope so too hopefully it curves away

Stay safe ... thinking of you all from U.K. ..
