Lessons Learned From Ike
1. I can cook just about anything on the grill and it tastes great.
2. Next hurricane I will stock up on unscented candles. Vanilla, clean cotton, cinnamon, and pineapple do not mix well in a stagnant, hot house.
3. I can read 2 books in 4 days when there is no electricity.
4. God is still God.
5. It is impossible to shave in a cold shower. Ouch.
6. I don't ever want to go a week without electricity again.
7. It can always be worse.
8. The guys from the power company in Hattiesburg, Mississippi, are my heroes. They left their families to come here and help restore power to our area.
9. I really love my husband. (Yes, I knew that before the hurricane, but I was reminded every day how lucky I am to have him.)
10. I am proud to live where I do. Everyone pulled together and helped in any way that was needed.
