Re: Any Santa Barbara area posters here tonight?

I hope that everyone in the affected area stays safe!  Best wishes to the firefighters fighting those fires....especially in those temps!

 

@hennypenny hope you have a good night's sleep and feel better tomorrow.  Hope the fire stays well away from you.  You need to concentrate on recuperating!

I just got out of the hospital (emergency gall bladder surgery) When we got home there was ash all over our property. 

We are about fifteen or twenty miles south In Santa barbara. Watched smoke from hosp bed. Our house  is all closed up. 

They managed to save a very nice upscale yurt and cabin "campsite".

Hope the winds die down. Heat wave will be terrible.

 


@hennypenny I was just going to contact you to make sure you are okay. Glad to see you posted already. Stay safe, everyone who is in that area!

About 20 percent containment on the fire today. Everything hinges on the winds. 

Thank you all for your sweet wishes. I was so happy to be in a real bed last night. Moving slowly but on the mend.

Was your GB surgery done laproscopically, @hennypenny.  I healed very quickly from my surgery and felt so much better without the gallbladder -- no more nausea or vomiting.

Hi Tansy,

Yes, I am so thankful they were able to do it laprosopically. Drs. wouldn't guarantee ahead of time.

I am doing much better, thank you! Just a bit sore. 

No spring chicken, so a bit slower than normal. I did water one of our little gardens before seven this morning, and filled all the bird baths. mr henny is having to do all the big property watering. I am not up to it, and the heat is nasty.
