Sigh* Well, we made it through Gustav. Hurrah. There was some damage though.. A branch fell on my grandma's roof around 3:00 on Mon. It made a big crack in the ceiling, and tore off part of the edge of the roof. There was a hole in the roof, and it was raining. Not a good combo. We had some water in the dining room, but it wasn't that bad. It rained again the night before last around 12, and we stayed up mopping till 1.
We fared a lot better than some though. I'm so thankful that it wasn't as bad as it could have been. My uncle owns Mageese Landin' on the Atchafalaya, and he said that the roof was torn off and the building flooded.
Today we went home. Still no electricity.. Everyone around us has it though, so it should get to us soon. My grandparents came over to pick us up. Now we're all over here, in Kaplan, with electricity and Ac ^^ yay!
Heh, yesterday I actually got to check my email. Dad and I went over to my aunt's house to pick up a vaccum cleaner. I brought Greg to try to find some internet. So I finally found some that I could access in my uncle's driveway lol. Dad pulled in and we both checked our email, sitting in the truck, in my uncle's driveway. (Mom said we should have gotten down and went visit ^^)
Anyways, we're all alive and well. I'm extremely glad to have some internet ^^
Peace out

Well, I'm glad your alive. Its been getting pretty lonely not being to see people at school and only having a few people to talk online with. Anyway, too bad for your gramdma and uncle. We had some trees fall too but away from the house, and they were small anyway. Cleaning up was hell. Hope to see you soon and hope you get your AC, power, and Internet soon. To Jackson, Away!!!!!!! (for my bro.'s soccer game). See ya
man..only a few people online? how do you live jonah? it must be torturous.
we didn't have any trees fall, and I stayed home through the whole thing, we never even lost electricity, the worst of it was when the lights flickered, and the P.C. got cut off while my sister was playing the SIMS, other than that it was basically a rough rain storm lol.
