Morning
Up early to give a ride to the woman who is staying with me since she showed up with a car with no gas in it after the hurricane. She works at the Galleria Mall which is open and on generator power and one mile from my house.
Last night her two children and I took a walk through my neighborhood. It was so dark that all you could make out was the shape of objects other then the houses on generators. We walked over two miles, very relaxing.
I have enough fuel for another four or five days and I'm hoping by that time some gas stations around me start opening, without lines, to get more fuel since I'm guessing that it will be at least two weeks before the downed power lines behind my house are repaired.
As long as I don't run out of fuel, ADSL stays on, and the weather stays cool we are actually very comfortable and pretty much just living normally.
My car really needs to go into the shop but nothing is open. Maybe I'll get lucky and whatever it was that got wet will work correctly when it dries out, not sure. In the mean time I have to pull over each time it errors and reset the computer.
Going to pay the two boys that are staying with me to cleanup my backyard today. The woman who lives across the street from me has also been paying them to cleanup her yard.
I live in Broward county
