Hi I am so sorry for all your troubles!!
Do you have a good friend or family that
you can stay with for a bit? Lightning stuck one of
our palm trees last summer then a week later hit the house
we lost our 2 tvs and computer !! It was very scary!!
Here it is summer again!! EWWWWWWWWWW!!
I hope that you are OK and asleep resting!
Let us know how you are doing! Judy

Boy I understand the startle effect that lightening can have and how after the hit it's hard to get it out of your mind.

Blessings, Suz   Posts in this Community

I have missed you so much, Jeanie! I even posted a *shout out* for you a few days back. This is such a frightening situation to be in. Like Suz, we had a close hit & the hair stood up on our bodies. It was the most fascinating thing. Every stud came flying out of the walls & there were pictures & knick knacks, etc. just flying around. We lost all our appliances. Thank God you're safe. You didn't need this on top of the other stresses you had. Please try to be calm & keep safe. Can you manage on your own without your SO? Keep in touch. We care. Let us give you a bit of support in your time of need. (((hugs))) jan

hello everyone,you gals are all so sweet and i thank you for that.yea when that lighting hit things in my home were acting strange.my blinds and curtains were shaking.i could here cracking threw walls.very scary and strange.i at 1st didnt no what was happening i was trying to keep my kids calm but....when i seen that strike threw my tv i knew what was happening.i had so much water comin in that i thought my roof was gone.adjuster said the water is coming from my home being shook and cracking the walls.some of my electrical wont work.but its all about to be fixed.thank god for my insurance.i am still in my home just living under tarps lol...and when a storm is brewing i leave to my friends or a store just dont want to stay here.my cp was not affected they said bcuz i have a surge protecter on it but that they dont always work.i hate feeling like my home is trashed now.i have smoke stains and water spots on the ceiling.i guess my comfort zone was rattled a bit.my home is only 4 yrs old so they said the value would only go down 5% what ever that means.my SO is driving me crazy callin my mom telling her i have issues and am crazy.he likes to play on my weakness which is anxiety.sometimes i think he liked me to be housebound and scared living in panic bcuz durning that i felt so needey of him and he loved my weakness.when i am confindent and strong and want to get a job his actions would make me feel like my place is in the home like i am a passive little women who needs him.my anxiety keeps me staying with him bcuz when i am like that or should i say having a growth spurt he comforts me.but something isnt right with us.i can make it fine w/o him.sry this is so long and thank you all for listening.
