Oct. 7, 2005 - Wiped Out...Literally.

So it's been awhile since I posted here. You see, August 23rd was the date of my last post, and while I'd had a rough day, I was optimistic. Life was still good. REALLY good. My family was great, and my cute little house was great. The cats and dogs were dandy. Everyone was happy. Jordan was thriving in school, and we were enjoying the heck out of it.



But then, on August 29th, our life changed in the most unforseeable way. Our home is gone. We lost our 2 cats. We lost every story book, school book, and notebook we had. We lost nearly everything we own. School came to a screeching halt as we sought refuge in a nearby state. The 15 feet of water that found it's way into our precious home, destroyed our lives as we knew it.



And you know what? Today things aren't much better. The house still sits in shambles, and our lives are only slightly better. Jordan just went to public school last week, because I haven't the mental ability to homeschool him right now. Friends and aquaintances sent new school books, but for the time being they sit on a friend's shelf...unused. I had to give him some stability, an outlet. He's enjoying it okay, but we both persevere just knowing it won't be an everlasting thing.



My husband and I are miles apart, as he continues at his job, only coming here on the occasional weekends that he has off.



I just want my life back....now.
