tree removal service is here. we are doing ok. new updates, pics. we love you! :)

Good evening angel friends :) my family and i thank you so very much, for being here for us, during this very tough, and emotional time. Your love, care, support, and prayers is giving us strength, and hope that is helping us through every hour. we deeply appreciate everything, with all of the love of our hearts. we love you all <3 my mom, dad, Lisa and i have been here at home, and have some new updates to share. we all are doing ok, us and our pets :) we checked in on all our family, everyone is ok. we called insurance place this morning, and also a tree removal service. the tree removal service came this afternoon. after 1pm they began to get ready to remove the tree that fell on our home. left side of our home, roof caving in. the workers said, it gonna be a 2 day process. all state person came, and took pictures of the damage. they said, that the amount of damages being reported, put them to consider it catastrophic level here in CT. it was a very scary storm. tomorrow, or friday, the insurance agents will be coming, to assess the damages to our home. the tree removal service, tarpeing our roof. we are still stunned, by all that has happened in the past 24 hours. my sister Jenn, Alyssa, ,both stopped by. they said, they have extra mattresses, when we need them. it's very nice, and sweet of them. Charlie and Barbara stopped by to check in on us. everyone is being so wonderful, caring, and offering us all we need. we feel very blessed, and thankful :) i've been having some time here on ds, some calls with Holly. we've been mainly in our living room. i did put treats outside, in our backyard, for our nature friends. :) We're all in good spirits :)


We all are doing fairly well, emotionally. we were talking about the storm, it was unbelievable. the cloud, it was dark, very dark, and the intensity of the rain, and sudden winds. our officials in ct, said the weather service is investigating around ct, as there's reports of numerous possible tornadoes that struck many areas of our state. in our backyard, when seeing that huge tree that was on our roof, metal swing that got flung, and a metal garden decor, that is on other side of our yard, and pine tree branches down. very scary sounds of the storm that hit, it was unbelievable, and first tornado we've ever been in. there is a video on weather channel, from ny, from yesterday, that showed a tornado. this video, is exactly what happened here. it had to be at least, 100mph or more winds. it was surreal, scary, and nerve racking. we been in so many different kinds of weather, but this, something we never want to experience ever again. we have been keeping everyone in our prayers.

Hi Chris So glad the tree is being taken off your house. It is nerve wracking when something like this happens and happens so fast. You are with us in our prayers dear friend. So glad that you all are taking comfort in being with each other. Often times just being with family and friends is the best way to overcome a castastrophe. Hang in there and I will check in on you all tomorrow after I get home from having my cardioversion. I am scared but everyone here has been really supportive and I know that a lot of prayers are being said on my behalf. Take care my friend. Love you John Debbie Mya Abby and Allie
