Good morning CoSo!

Yesterday I wanted to post this message. A simple good morning. But I got stuck down a rabbit hole trying to find a particular web comic I remembered.

Well, I found that but I also found some relief from the trauma wrought by hurricane Helene in my area. School is started back for us and there are still many suffering. Yesterday I was feeling that weight but today I'm refreshed for finding that web comic.

Because I remembered my joy in reading it. 😄 Find your joy.

@Opusworks or you can vote in Jeff Jackson who had always been on hand, communicative,and sane.

Hurricane Milton strengthens into a Category 5 storm off Mexico and threatens Florida, forecasters say. apnews.com/article/hurricane-m

Before you ask why storm victims didn’t evacuate despite warnings of an approaching hurricane, please consider that many folks don’t have cars, have no family or friends to stay with, can’t afford gasoline or hotels, don’t dare risk losing their jobs if they can’t return in time, can’t safely evacuate their elderly loved ones, won’t leave without their pets, or have legitimate health concerns about staying in shelters. Poor shaming them during and after a catastrophe is not a good look.

"This has been a massive, unprecedented response. We are deeply grateful for the federal resources that we have. FEMA has been on the ground with us from the very beginning."

Gov. Roy Cooper

Good Saturday morning CoSo! We have weathered the storm and are back to semi-normal. Today I'm relaxing by playing the new : Echoes of Wisdom. A little later I'll go help unload some trucks with supplies for my neighbors who are still struggling. Pay it forward my friends.

Morning Coso. Please remember as they try to recover from the worst flooding the area has seen since 1911.

Love seeing pumpkin sales on surrounding farms.

Going from downtown high rise to rural living is amazing.

But please donate to western NC emergency funds. They are still in dire needs.
