What a morning

Wow! Let me say this morning was the morning of all mornings. First, the power goes out, and this is bad. let me say why....Webb (my husband) is a saltwater tank freak, so he has a fancy tank all set up. When the power goes out, all hell breaks loose. Let me say we had maybe 10 gallons of water goes all over our dining room carpet and all over our kitchen. What's the best is that our tank is now on the wall connected to another apartment. But we became lucky ducks and no water went into apartment next to us. so reaching him was a sight. I tried to get on another wireless network from a local shop or whatever to text him. No wireless networks in range. So I had to find a phone ASAP! I went to the neighbor's house and used her cell phone. we have one cellphone we share. so he comes home from work, to become my knight in shining armour and check on his baby (his tank). Well most of the water went into the kitchen, and with half of my towels in the washer. I was limited to towels. but I did have flash backs from Hurricane gustav. If you didn't follow me from the hurricane, I'll explain next.

If you didn't follow me with Hurricane Gustav, it was a hurricane that hit Louisiana on September 1. Your asking why do I know the exact date..I was 38 weeks pregnant! So we were hoping I wouldn't go into labor with the pressure dropping so much. Well, I had JJ a week later. Well we were out of power for a week over here. No money b/c my husband just got laid off..(seriously), no radio, very little food, and a POS car. It was the hardest week of my adult life so far, but it was the best also. We got to spend time with Mason before JJ was born. I was miserable, we were miserable, but she didn't know what was going on. So the hurricane was a blessing in disguise. Then my brother in law hired my husband until he found a job and my father in law gave us his car for 150/month. So we had very little income coming in, but it was something. Don't ask why I'm putting this out here. so now we are ok financially, so i can say we are blessed.

so all is right in the world, so we think. but waking up to no power and a tank leak (again), can drive a person out of her mind.
