I would say this will be my last post for a while. I can count on no power or phone service for the next few day. And even after it's over, if I'm lucky enough to have a home, I know I'll have a big mess to clean up after, if nothing else. After tonight, the putter will be turned off, unpluged and shut down for a good while.

So good luck to those in the path of the hurricane and to those that live on the west side of the state, try not to worry. You are in a safer area then most in FLorida. I belive you will be fine.

My Family have been evacuate and most of them are in Tampa now. I feel safe knowing they are there and am sure they will make it OK. I have been told to evacuate, but can't because of my pets. There is no way to take that many pets anywhere. So we chosie to stay and ride it out. We live near the Okechobee area, one of the areas they expect to get hit hard by Frances. We live in a old Florida home and have our fingers crossed that it can stand the winds, but in all honesty, it not made to handle these type of winds.

It hard to think that I could lose some more pets because of another hurricane and at the worce be homeless. It times like this that I wish I just rented instead of own. Renters just lose there belonges, we lose everything. My Ex-husband cancled my home owners insurance out of pure evil as his name has been on in sense our divorce 5 years ago. I couldn't take him off, sense they said that would make it a new policy and they where not taking on any new policys. So I'm screwed. You can't get insurance during hurricane times.

So Good luck to all in Florida, my prayers are with you all and good bye from the gang.
