Crewleader reporting in....

[Crewleader]

now that my power was just turn on this morning!
7 days without it for Jeanne and 10 days without it for Frances.

What Frances did, made it easy for Jeanne but we will get through this with time but the best thing is we are all OK! I'm tired but very grateful we made it through it all. It's the aftermath that is the roughest and Florida is not kind at this time of year.

I was pleased with my rabbit ears watching the Presidential Debate on ABC the only TV station I could get...sought of reminded me of the days in my youth watching presidential debates from days gone by.

John Kerry did a great job of expressing himself and his leadership that he was so much more presidential then Bush ever thought of being. Bush's record shows that he doesn't have any and that debate was suppose to be Bush's strength, NOT! Go Kerry!

I look forward to Kerry's big win in November and all of you being a good reason why he makes it, all the support he gets here from the best people on the Left, you all are so dedicated and I'm proud to know you all. It's good to be back friends! :hi:

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

2. Really glad to hear you are OK and with power

thanks for the update...hope it stays dry there for a while now :loveya:

[Crewleader]

6. Dry...me too Teena

"the me too clause"....;-)

Actually it's hard to get shingles,more damaged roofs then supplies...hopefully soon.
The rain can stay away my friend...:-):loveya:

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

21. If you need me to mail you some from California let me know

I can always fed ex some to you

[Crewleader]

39. You are a sweetheart Teena

we got it covered friend but I think we're not going to go shingles next roof, barrel tile or the metal one that looks like tile.

My poor neighbor got her roof done right after Frances and Jeanne repeated the same action, so now again her roof needs to be done.

Someone ask if I'm keeping the boards up since the season isn't over til the end of November, some bigger ones will stay til we are sure because they are heavy to hang but I got the smaller windows all off and the sliding doors. I'll be glad when it's over, then we are getting into some nice weather and temperatures.

Thanks again Teena for your thoughtfulness! :hug: :loveya:

5. Hey Crew

Glad you're ok and have power back. Good that you were able to see the debate. Our guy Kerry cleaned dubya's clock but good. ;)

:hi:

Being in South Louisiana, I know how much fun it can be without power for a week at a time after a storm. Glad you are back among the air-conditioned!

[Crewleader]

18. Thanks benito

you know how it is, being in Louisana. Now their worried over West Nile Virus since a woman came down with it on Merrit Island.
Like I said so much dealing with the aftermath but the storm itself was quite scary at times, boarded up helped not take the roof off.

[Crewleader]

13. Hi Madmax

you said it right, Kerry cleaned dubya's clock, big time!

Yesterday in a intersection where Kerry supporters were surround by Bush supporters since this is a repug county...but when we went by with our horn going to town, our Kerry/Edwards bumper sticker in the window with our thumbs up...those Kerry Supporters' came alive and started to cheer....what determination to be standing there surround by them and still giving it their all!

That's What It Will Take To Win!

God Bless All The Kerry Supporters! :thumbsup:

[Dudley_DUright]

7. Nice to hear from you Crewleader

I know that the space coast got hit quite a bit harder than we did up here near Daytona. Remarkably, we did not even lose power due to Jeanne (but did for several days from Frances). I hope we can get back to normal FL weather without anymore land-falling hurricanes. Take care. :hi:

[Crewleader]

15. Hello neighbor

I'm really happy you didn't go without power...Frances was a long one too...I am hurricane out but the last time I said that here comes Jeanne so I'm not saying that anymore or will I say , Bring it on...:)

Nice hearing from you Dudley_DUright! :hi:

[5thGenDemocrat]

10. Hi Crew

Just a note to say I'm glad you're well and I'm happy to hear from you.
John
Up here in hurricane-proof Michigan (where it's currently 57 degrees).

[Crewleader]

20. Give me that 57' John

I love it, hurricane-proof Michigan is a must see one day! :hi:

[5thGenDemocrat]

22. Well, keep this in mind, then

It is now 258 days, 21 hours and 28 minutes to FUNDAY XI.
John
And we can set you up with real nice lodgings, gratis. Think about it, anyhow.

[Crewleader]

38. Thanks John

If you ever get down here be sure to stop in. :-)

[cmd]

11. So glad to have you back

It's great to know that power is getting back to normal. I promise not to complain the next time ours goes out for an hour. Welcome home.:hug:

[JitterbugPerfume]

12. it is good to hear from you, dear Toni

fortunately my daughters escaped the hurricane damage this year so far I am very grateful for that

I have been preoccupied lately as my friend Rosemary now has liver cancer , maybe inoperable

Take care ((((((((((HUG)))))) from Jitterbug

[Crewleader]

27. I am very sorry to hear this Jitterbug

my prays for your friend, she's been through so much.

I am very happy your daughters escape the hurricane damage, it's hard what people are going through.

You take care of yourself friend, keep me updated when you can! :hug:

[Crewleader]

23. Thanks for the welcome home dear friend

I bet it's beautiful where you are right now,the fall foliage with the colorful leaves. My trees that did make it, all the leaves are falling, most of the woods behind me is bare.
One more maple tree to cut down, it split right at the base of the tree. When I can I will replace them with palm trees, they seem to bend with the winds and survive alot of abuse.

Enjoy your color this Fall, coalsminersdaughter and thanks again for the welcome home! :hug:

[ulysses]

14. hey, Crew!

Glad you're safe and well. :hi:

[Crewleader]

24. Thanks ulysses

I love your state of Georgia, I was in Mt.Zion with Frances but with Jeanne we stayed, like most who couldn't afford that kind of expense getting hit so close together.

Yes, I'm safe and well and grateful....:hug:

[Philostopher]

16. Glad to hear everything's okay, Crew!

And that you got to see that debate -- bonus!

[Crewleader]

25. You nownow that was a real treat watching that debate

even with the rabbit ears it was a real bonus! :hi:

[Mandate My Ass]

17. Crew, it's great to see you back

It sounds like you guys have really been through it with the storms but hopefully now it'll be smooth sailing.

LOL, I didn't know rabbit ears were still around but I can remember when tinfoil was only for the tips of the rabbit ears and not for helmets. :hi:

[Crewleader]

28. Hi Monica_L

funny....how about wire coat hangers with tinfoil...whatever made the picture come in....:-)

Yup, been through some storms friend :loveya:

signing off...

Storm Trooper Toni :hug:

[Mandate My Ass]

31. LOL life was interesting before cable and remote controls

We had to change channels with a pair of needle nose pliers for several years when the channel knob broke on the old Magnivox. Luckily there were only six channels you could watch back then.

Talk to ya soon. :hug:

[Zomby Woof]

19. No. More. Hurricanes.

Got it?

:hi: Good thoughts for the Crewfamily.

[Crewleader]

29. Hi ZombyWoof....Got It!

That's It! NO MORE HURRICANES ...ZOMBY SAYS!!! :hug:
Thanks for the good thoughts...
The Crewfamily Appreciates it! :hi:

[Rowdyboy]

26. WOOHOO!

lOOK WHO'S BACK! Takes more than a couple of hurricanes to keep Crew down!

Best news of the day!

[Crewleader]

30. WooHoo YOU!

Thanks Rowdyboy....your post and the others have made my day! :loveya:

[Pithlet]

32. Hey, Crew!

I'm glad everyone is okay :hug:

I think Kerry did a wonderful job. Bush was choking and it was obvious. I was optomistic before, but I'm feeling really great about the election, now.

I'm so glad you're back :hi:

[Crewleader]

34. I'm with you Pithlet

Kerry will be voted in as President...that debate made me sleep peacefully for the future looks bright. We will be in good hands with John Kerry and John Edwards and all who work for their administration.

There will be a big mess for them to clean up, but it will be good, those who need to help will be paying their fair share.

You give your beautiful guys hugs from me and here is one for you Mom! :hug:

[OKNancy]

33. I'm so glad you are back

We miss your enthusiasm! I thought about you. It's amazing what people can endure. I know I go crazy on the few times our power goes out here in Oklahoma ( usually storm related) I don't know what I would have done if it had been for so long as yours.

[Crewleader]

35. Hi there OKNancy

I miss warm showers, even in this heat, those cold showers were not relaxing.
Infact I'm going to go take one soon and relax.

Thanks for the welcome back friend! :hi:
