24 Oct 2008This was my beloved pet cat that we found on the woods last summer. He made a good garden company, even sometimes he would play with my camote tops. A squash or two were killed but since aiming the garden hose at him, the kitten laid off a bit. He was my constant companion, and it was a pleasure watching him grew. He was my companion during the hurricanes, but shortly after that he was run over. It was very sad and lonely day for me. I missed him, but every time I recall our time together, I would always smile, still missing him. He was my second cat. Third one? Maybe when I go back home.
I am very thankful that hurricane Gustav passed without so much damage here. There are limbs and leaves around that the ground looks so green, aside from the grasses, but other than that, everything is fine. We lost electricity, water and phone service for four days, but even alone in the house, I was fine. I had prepared good for it and we didn’t have problems. I just pray we will be spared from another yet natural drama.

1 Sep 2008It’s mowing time! But I did not cut the grass this week for I need as much of them to hold and protect the soil from the effects of the hurricane Gustav. Tonight till tomorrow we will be expecting to be in the eye of the storm, and suffer the terrible weather associated with it for the whole week. We just hope for the best despite the odds. There are no advisories in our place other than using the common sense in this critical time, so we just prepared for things we expect that will happen throughout the whole week and beyond. Be well.
