We spent this past week caught in our home in the dark (Missouri)...no power at all.. It was a real eye-opener and I found that a lot of things on my mind were considered to be fairly common....an odd sort of trauma!

Going to a shelter presented one huge problem to us...NO PETS ALLOWED!

We stayed in this home for 4 days and it was a nightmare. I thought I was over-reacting, but I've found that my reactions were very typical for most of us.

This has expanded my interests, and I was amazed that there are others like me. We live through these things on different levels, and we will have to decide which level we will work within.

This one is to stay in very familtiar territory, but to behave in a non-typical way. It is sort of like suddenly writing with the other hand! : <img src="/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
