Good to hear !(other that the lack of fireman) LOL Cleanup is always the worse part ! Took the chainsaw out and cut up the big limbs and into pieces we could handle. Cleared some of our normal pathways and decided to leave the rest till it dries out some.Weather might cool off enough to hunt the first part of next week , well starting saturday..... maybe. I'd like to get 1 more fat doe in the freezer(or 2). we went from 50s to ice storm back to 50s and mud ! Crazy weather !

Bonnie was asking if I knew how you were doing , so I'm asking ! LOL How you doing ? Fire and smoke damage fixed ? No smoke inhalation ? No handsome fireman giving you mouth to mouth ? Oops tmi ! LOL

Thank you. Say some prayers for me.

Things have improved a lot since last night. I've got most of the cleaning finished. The smell is dissipating. The microwave and electric kettle arrived today. The air filters will arrive after the holidays. I just need to do a lot of laundry.

Is there anything Bonnie or I can do to help ?

Haven't even worried about it one lil bit ! LOL The tree cutting got to me so I took a break ! That tree ain't going anywhere by itself ! I think it's going to be cooler next week !

Well , ol Lodgeskins is still among us ! LOL He's dying and there's nothing anyone can do. I talked to him this morning for a minute.He's tired and was going back to sleep. Said he'd call me back , but didn't. Probably forgot. He says he's ready and I'm as ready as anyone can ever be. Thanks

I can tell, LOL. You tell him/her.

This is what is frightening about the application of critical theory to ethnic relations. The terminology is so loaded, that anyone who doesn't agree is placed on the wrong side. In my experience, it triggers defensiveness, anger or shame in white people. None of those emotions are helpful in prompting cross-cultural understanding. At best you get a bout a verbal "I didn't do it; I'm not like that" dysentery. You can't educate, 'cause they can't hear you over the flapping of their gums, LOL.

I hope you guys are keeping well. How's your brother?

Grrrrr , now I'm mad ! LOL

We are doing really well ! Surprisingly enough , it's not that big of a change for us as we had pretty much told everyone if they couldn't accept us without the drama , they could stay away ! LOL So we are kinda on our own ! We have 1 daughter and her 2 kiddos that are still close , but none of mine and not her other 3 ! Their loss ! We're are happy !

Hope you're well. I may have been a bit harsh on our friend ches !
