Here we are on day 7.....still no power. Things are slowly getting better each day. Steven and I have been keeping busy helping neighbors and church members. Many have it much worse than we do. Yesterday we helped a sister from church move her belongings into storage because she had THREE trees on her house....her home is destroyed.
We are still hopeful to get power back soon. We are still on a generator. The linemen are all over the place fixing the power lines. We see huge convoys of them rolling all over town. I'm going to hope that by Wednesday we might get power back.
We are off today to go and cut some trees down....I'm more of a spectator in the process.The men around here love to play with their chainsaws. On Sunday we get to help Steven's sister get her property cleaned up. She had a tree come through and demolish her daughter's bedroom.
A sweet sweet friend of ours from church showed up yesterday with the supplies to fix our roof and went right to work. He patched the hole and reshingled it, so all of our major concerns are taken care of! We have been very blessed.

Yay for the fast repair job on the roof. Many of our neighbors are also still without power, also due to Ike, but we're way up in Ohio! We're also enjoying watching our community work together and help everyone out as the power outage stretches into day 6 here. Best wishes.
