Hurricane update
Hi Love Not Found buds! Hurricane Ian has come and gone. We are OK and had very little damage thankfully. Being on the east side of central Florida we were only hit with a strong Tropical Storm and only minor flooding in our area. The brunt of the storm came in the form of winds. Big winds sustaining 40mph and definitely 70mph gusts throughout the night.
Thankfully the huge pine tree that came down fell the other way and did not come down on the house. We were without power since Wednesday night, but as of this afternoon we are back in action and turning on lights again! I’m looking forward to having hot water and taking a shower. My heart goes out to all those folks who lost so much more. My father lost everything twice to hurricanes when he lived in the Florida Keys and I can only imagine what folks are going through right now. My heart is with you and your loved ones!
Gonna take next week to catch up on time lost to the hurricane and then I am planning to be back the following week with new pages of Love Not Found! Love you all. 
I’m glad you escaped the worst of it. The frequency of news about disastrous weather is pretty frightening.
Omg, I had no idea that’s where you lived! I am glad you and your family are okay! My own brother and his family lived in Pensacola Florida when Michael hit and almost lost everything. Only things in their hurricane proof garage (like the car and irreplaceable items) survived. They now live in Virginia. Thankfully they weren’t affected by the remnants of Ian.
Relieved to hear you and yours are well. My in-laws lived many a year in Florida and weathered many a storm. I decided then I was glad to live at least 6000+ feet above sea level. I may have less air and snow, but I don’t have 10′ of water.
I’m glad to hear you’re safe!! Hope things get back on track soon for you, I can’t wait to keep reading this beautiful work of yours!
Glad to hear that your ok! We also live in FL around the Clearwater but we just got a bunch of win and rain. Having power back after something like this is just an amazing feeling we never know that till it’s gone! Any support or help that can be done for anyone in Ian’s path is what we are working on right now. Stay safe and take your time and enjoy that shower!😊❤😊
Thanks for letting us know you and yours are all right.
