The Best Things About Irene
04.09.11
I’m so joyful I bought that Melitta coffee maker before I started my no-shopping-for-a-year experiment.
You see, it doesn’t use any fervency. And I thank my lucky stars I have a gas stove, not an electric one. During the Paralysed Week in Madison, I haven’t had to go without my beloved morning cup of coffee. The cream even stayed untested inside a cooler with ice purchased at the Madison ice house for the general price. No gouging there.
It’s still not easy. We were forced to leave our contain during the Hurricane because we feared that staying inside wouldn’t be shielded. Thank you Nia and Harry for taking us, our daughter, and two dogs in.
We level no damage or flooding to our house, despite fears of both. Some of my neighbors weren’t so fortunate. Robin, a few doors down, had two huge trees snap off and alight across her driveway, narrowly missing the house.
If there’s any silver lining to this horrendous event, it’s the kindness of friends and neighbors, a sense that we’re all in this together, and the unexpected stunner that pops up when you least expect it. Not to get too Pollyanna on you, but here’s my list of the best things about Irene.
