I'm only here part time...On another note, you and @Flowersoul and @clnire we all live within 2 hours or less of each other. We should meet!
No kidding, Bea. I feel like I'm suffering greatly when our power is off a few minutes and I have to reset the clocks. I'm simply not able to imagine what so many are going through after Irma.As usual it's not the wealthy who have the biggest issues in re-building in the Keys. It's the service workers who barely live from paycheck to paycheck. The situation seems to be very dire.
In the Keys, workers already struggled to find affordable housing. Then Irma hit.
There's definitely some stuff that was just patched up temporarily. Two houses across the street from me still have temporary service cables laying in their yards.We had a 2 hour power outtage from 5-7am and I wonder if the aftermath of Irma is still having residual problems.
I'm glad to hear they're getting help. I just wonder what will happen to all the service and blue collar workers who support every industry in the Keys. According to the FL Keys News (link above) these people who have lost their homes, most of them trailors, are unable to replace them. They live paycheck to paycheck. For many there is no paycheck coming in right now because wherever they worked are not operational yet. It seems to be a dire situation.My FL National Guard Sgt 1st Class son is in Key West. Pictures not good, but supplies are coming in. Sigh.
Unemployment, & FEMA, some Red Cross (don't get me started) & other things came thru here. Most of the people you are worried about did not own their homes.I'm glad to hear they're getting help.

Please never tell another to stop worrying especially for this great a concern. Bea's worry is WORTHY of admiring here. Care, Kindness, and LOVE is what we ALL need ALWAYSUnemployment, & FEMA, some Red Cross (don't get me started) & other things came thru here.

Bea, storms have been hitting forever. This is your first experience with hurricane aftermath. But this is what happens to one degree or another everytime. Stop worrying. Floridians know what to do, & they'll do it.

This may be my first real live hurricane but I've been following their aftermaths for years…and the dire straights so many people are in afterwards. Floridians may KNOW what to do but that doesn't mean they are ABLE to do it.Bea, storms have been hitting forever. This is your first experience with hurricane aftermath.
