Thank you everyone, for standing strong by our side :) we are with you. you give us daily strength:)

Hi angel friends, big warm caring friendship hugs, from us all :) i have some new updates to share. Thank you all, for the wonderful outpouring of love, care, support, and prayers. :) it means the world to us. We are doing ok, and are keeping in good spirits :) You all are helping us a lot :) we are keeping to as normal with our days, as we can. :) we got good sleep last night, over 6 hours. We are taking good care and hanging out together here in our living room. :) the tree removal service is here, and is removing the rest of the tree, and adding a new tarp in the areas where our roof is damaged. my mom and dad have been in contact with the all state insurance company, and an agent has been assigned to us, and our home. they are going to be coming in the days ahead,  to assess the damages to our home, rooms. They are going to be re-doing our rooms, roof, and left side of our home. The insurance company asked us to take, indoors and outdoors, of the damages, for documentation. we are working here in our home, organizing and going to be removing items best we can, when we can, from our rooms, as it's going to take time, and will be a process, getting things in order, but we are doing fairly well, with everything. we're getting so much strength, from you all, our dear angel friends :) the national weather service confirmed, that at least 4 tornadoes touched down, here in Connecticut. so many people and homes, impacted by the storms. we are keeping everyone in our thoughts, prayers, and in our hearts :) we love our home, and wanna blossom into new great days as it gets repaired :)


my family, Holly, and i hope everyone is doing well, and enjoying a nice day :) we've been home today, i put some goodies outside this morning. :) our nature friends are doing good, it was raining here this morning. We've been adapting to how things are going. i've been finding good balance, in being there for family, friends, nice ds time, and also thinking of all of the gardening to look forward too :) our plants, sprouts, are all doing well. :) we had to move our planters in our front yard, and we have to re-do our backyard garden, fence. with the tree removal, there's massive amount of branches, leaves out there. i'm gonna be ready to do some garden work soon :) the days have been so different for us all, but finding such good balance in special simple joys, and knowing that all is gonna be ok, and will eventually get back to normal more and more with each day and week that goes by :)


my mom had some extra stamps, we sent out some cards today when our mailman came :) we have had so much going on, and didn't make it to the post office, but will again soon :) all the kids are doing well :) we've had lots of family coming over to see us :) neighbors have been checking in on us, and looking at our home. We are going to have a baking friday adventure tomorrow :) it's been a long week, we want to have a good old fashioned baking friday adventure, it will bring us comfort, and a fun adventure :) i'm on my laptop computer, i'm getting use too typing on it :) we all miss our bedrooms, and i miss my computer room. the tree damaged the main board beam below our roof, that is attached to our roof home. it will need to be repaired, and rebuilt, so our rooms, and computer room will be safe again :) we are going to be moving items soon, when we can, out of our bedrooms, for when they will be working on our home, roof, and rooms. we're hoping, the process can begin soon, and will definitely keep everyone updated. The outpouring of love, prayers, support,  is very special and has touched our hearts in so many ways. we will forever deeply appreciate everything, forever, always,with all of the love of our hearts <3 we are looking forward to days ahead, and continuing to be there for eachother, and everyone :) thank you our dear guardian angel friends, so very much :) a prayers request, for our dear and lovely friend Debbie (Sunsetyellow2) and her family. Debbie had a procedure (cardioversion) today on her heart. we are thinking of her, wishing her a full healing recovery, and we are praying for everyone, impacted by the severe weather, and everyone in need of prayers :) we're with you, and we're so happy, thankful, and blessed, to have you all in our lives :)


Thank you everyone, so very much, for being here for us :) we are right by your sides :)my mom, Lisa, family says hi :) we love you all bunches and bunches! sending lots of love, and our most warmest friendship hugs, from our hearts, and from our home we love so very much, to your homes :) friendship smiles, across the miles :) -never lose hope :) we hope everyone has a peaceful evening, and night :)

Hello, sweet Chris and family, I just saw your DS posts. What a wild and scary time you guys had. I am so happy to hear that you all made it through the storm with your precious lives! But so sorry about the damage to your roof. Those are some pictures! Thanks for sharing all of those. It was nice to see your flowers made it. How about your garden? I hope it made it as well. I'm keeping all of you in my thoughts and prayers for a speedy repair on your blessed home with the least amount of inconvenience. Take care of yourself. Someone in Oregon loves you!! I am here to help you in any way I can. xoxoxoxoxo
