Oh hell…. who knows what’s gonna happen?

Knitivity Posted on by

Looking worse and worse for Texas.

Yes, I know I’m not in the worst part of Texas, and I’m not going to get it as bad as other folks.   I’m really trying to keep it all in perspective.   But I have storm-related PTSD and I can’t just shut that off on command.   Just a while ago I got all showered and shaved — I had to use both hands to steady the razor, I was shaking so bad.   Anyone who shaves knows that the blade strokes downward in a smooth stroke; it’s really not a good thing to shake the blade back and forth sideways. 😀

I have no idea how much flooding will occur in my neighborhood, or if I will even be able to get back in the house right away or if there will be electricity.   I know there is yarn supposed to arrive on Thursday, but without electricity I won’t be able to process it.  As with Hurricane Ike, this storm may affect me ability to make money.  But for now I am okay, so we’ll just think positive thoughts and hope for the best.  🙂

Think happy thoughts.  🙂

  2. I’m sending all the safe and dry thoughts and good wishes I can for you, Ray! And seriously, if you need financial help coping with the storm — now or afterwards — don’t hesitate to ask.

    I’ve been following you pretty much since Katrina, so I know you’ve had to deal with more than your fair share of storms, and there are a lot of folks like me who can help you out a bit, even if your pride insists on it taking the form of buying yarn in advance so you have the funds you need.

    So please know your customers are thinking about you and telling Harvey to die back down to a 35-mph tropical depression!

    • Thank you, Laura. I appreciate that. I am counting on going home, letting the neighborhood dry out and getting back to work. BUT, if the power is out or something worse happens, I will absolutely let people know. With hurricane preparations I’ve already spent a couple hundred that I wasn’t expecting to spend, but I can make it up with the incoming yarn. Fingers crossed, prepare for the worst, hope for the best. 😀

  3. Take care – breath – it will be ok!! Yarn is just string – you have “people” – remember? Good vibes coming in strong waves your way.
