Had no idea this was going on or that I'd be counted!
Safe at home. Little damage, lots of clean up. Been volunteering time, money and efforts in Bayou La Batre. They got hammered and have little to no relief coming in.
Thanks for thinking of me!

IXOLIB - Quick Check In...
Hello All - In looking back at some of the initial posts immeditely following Katrina's landfall, it is quite obvious that those of us here on the MS coast were certainly in everyone's prayers and thoughts. For that, my family and I are eterneally grateful to our S2K family.
Secondly, I want to pass on my sincere appreciation to two of our members/moderators. First to Cajun Mama for initiating the contact thread just before the storm and then taking care to ensure my info was passed on to the appropriate person. And my sincerest thanks to Southerngale for the tireless effort in trying to contact me over and over again for the ten days following the storm. Unfortunately, my cell phone went floating away and I was without communication until the 9th when I finally got a new phone from Cellular South. To my amazement and gratification, Southerngale was on the other end - in fact, her's was the first call I received on my new phone!! It's just so amazing how everyone here was and is truly concerned with their fellow members here on the coast - all of you are forever in my thoughts for the concern and compassion you dispalyed for my safety and on my behalf. When I get my ISP back, I'm gonna go back and look at every thread since 8/30!!
I still don't have internet (I'm visiting my Mom-in-law's house in Ocean Springs). But I wanted to quickly drop in and say hi, thanks, and to let you know I can't wait to get back on. I STILL don't have any idea of the point of landfall, winds, initial surge reports, etc... You know, the basic stuff we always talk about!!
Right now, we're tearing out the walls, insulation, and floors in the hopes of reducing the mold. We had about 4 feet in the house, and as you might have seen in other posts, my driveway is 30.5 feet above sea level. You can imagine my amazement when Biloxi Back Bay ended up in surging through my entire home. It was truly a morning to remember - no doubt about that... Lost all the furniture, four cars, and a ton of memories that can never be replaced. I guess that's one of the prices for living in this beautiful part of the world... But, we're all safe and my company (Harrah's/Grand Casino) is taking good care of us - at least for the short term.
Hope to see ya'll soon. Cableone says it won't be long!!
Take care all, and thanks again for the thoughts and prayers - they really helped!! The S2K family is truly awesome!!

I finally had the opportunity to go back and read every one of the posts and replys in this thread. From beginning to end, the words written are sacred and I believe this thread should somehow be archieved in a prominent place for all to see, now and forever. The amazing display of compasion, caring, concern, and love is truly inspiring. Yet another testament that there is a wonderful side to mankind that we so often overlook. Let this be a constant reminder for any of us who may forget. Quite humbling, to say the least...
