My power came on at about 5 am today. I must have left every light on in my house and the stereo on really loud. I didn't even need coffee to be awake for the rest of the day.
I'm going to arrange to have the tree removed from my bedroom's roof tomorrow. I'm thinking of having the rest of my trees trimmed way back at the same time, but I don't want to trim them too much as I really enjoy the way they shade my house, but I also don't want another one going through my roof if this other hurricane also hits us.
Both my insurance companies and Fema told me to take lots of pics, start on repairs, get receipts, and they would reimburse me which kind of makes me wonder if they really will. I'm thinking of just letting the bedroom rot until at least one insurance adjuster shows up, but it does smell really bad even with the door closed, but I do need to get the tree off my house.
Since I moved into a much smaller bedroom with a much smaller closet I decided to try on every piece of clothing that I had and every pair of shoes that I own. I had stuff going back over 20 years. I didn't fit into any of my disco clothes anymore which was no surprise as I don't do drugs any more. I did find lots of long forgotten stuff that I did fit into again and I threw away most of my fat clothes as I don't plan on every stopping going to the gym again. I threw away 8 large yard bags of clothes and gave a bunch of linen to Luna. I'll probably give her my couches and stuff once I start remodeling. Today when I finally got around to getting dressed I couldn't find anything and with all of the found stuff it was like going shopping going through my closet.
Funny… I feel excited, it's like this hurricane renewed my life. I haven't felt this positive in a long time.
