Yikes, I did not realize that you were in the path of that storm! Glad to hear that you are safe and that your house is still OK. Even when I lived (briefly) in Floriday, we never had a storm hit us or had to evacuate--very lucky, I know!

Michelle;
I was wondering about you and thinking about you last night when I heard the news. I am so glad that you are o.k. and that your home is fine. Please keep us informed about how things are going. This hits me very close to home for a few reasons; I am a Red Cross emergency response volunteer and we also live in the oath of hurricanes; our season does not begin officially for many more months but I know the precise feeling that you describe. I pray for all those who were affected. Reconstruction takes a lot of time and can be a very unsettling time. We experienced this with Hurricane Juan. You will get through it. Prayers and Hugs.

Michelle, I'm so glad to hear you're ok. I didn't hear about this until 4 minutes ago when I logged online. I immediately started praying. I can't believe you took the time to log on and let us know you're ok, but I'm sure glad you did. I'll keep praying.

glad you're OK. having been through two hurricanes myself, I know it's no picnic. in the USA we can get flood insurance but only through the government. when you buy a house, you know if you're in a flood designated area. I currently live a couple blocks from the Mississippi River which has been known to flood. But I'm safe on top of a big hill.
hang in there lady lawyer. keep your sense of humor through these trying times.

I'm so glad you and your family are safe. You're right, there are no words to express the sadness of other's loss. Here's hoping the best for those who endured the worst.

Holy, cow, Michelle, I didn't even know about the impending cyclone until I logged in just now--I've been trying to catch up on stuff.
I am so glad you are okay but dismayed at what you and A had to go through. I know others have it worse but still I know it must've been an awful experience.
And I would help you with that chainsaw on the roof, let me tell you! Insurance companies--ARRRRGH.
We're sending lots of hugs and good vibes and big time prayers your way. Stay safe.

Hey Michelle, glad to hear you are safe. I had emailed Madi for news on your welfare, and she has filled me in too. Thank goodness you were not in the direct firing line. HOpefully the next one stays away, or as you said, crosses at an unpopulated place. You must be so tired. Hope you catch up on sleep, and get back to normality. Take care, we are thinking of you. Bye for now, Meow xx

I’m so glad Cyclone Larry didn’t do you extreme damage and I, too, feel compassion for those who did suffer losses. I pray that Cyclone Wati will decide to make a turn to some uninhabited area to blow itself out.

BF thanks so much for your kind words. Cairns copped it pretty bad in some areas, especially inland in Atherton.
Skyeblue, yes we're fine....can't get rid of me that quick! Thanks for your kind wishes 
Dew, would take a bigger gust of wind to get rid of me LOL...thanks heaps for your well wishes 
Kirsten your kind words and prayers are very much appreciated 
Lois, i can't even watch the news reports any more......the sadness and grief those people are going through breaks my heart.
R thanks so much for your kind words 
JQP.....start mixing those damn drinks...i want room service NOW!!!!
Jenny, thanks heaps...hope Keith is ok.
Rudder thanks heaps. You have to have a sense of humour in these times Interesting with your insurance. It is common knowledge what insurance covers you for here, it just hurts knowing that you've payed a lot of money for a policy...had your home destroyed and because it came from the ground up you get zero 
Cassie, thanks so much, it's wonderful to know others are praying for you 
Heidi, it all happened so quickly! One minute it was a low next thing i'm packing bags and valuables ready to evacuate!

Steve, thanks heaps.....trying to keep the faith here 
PBS, florida has been in the firing line quite a bit...very sad.
Thanks heaps for your well wishes...much appreciated
