I haven't left yet, I really don't want to leave DH and DS. Spoke with EOC: there are shelters with generators. I'm a "medical evacuee" on Oxygen and CPAP , A- Fib, Diabetes. Auto-immune disease-and neurologic problems.... I just can't bring myself to leave....
I am much calmer now than I was a few hours ago, but I am now at peace......I don't want to be apart from DH and DS....
I know emotionally I am all over the map.....please don't call me crazy down the road here.
In this situation, there are no easy answers-ever....
One of my problems have been that DH tells me one thing (his opinion-but he really is not all-knowing-as much as he thinks he is).....and son-who really should be a lawyer-sees both sides-but leaves,me with no answers.
I am in such a fugue....I have to confess, my brain is not up to par-at this point, I am not rationally synthesizing anything....
And yes-I said earlier I am at peace with what EOC told me...and then I'm at odds too....
Dear Adonai- get us all through this...this has an eastern track-Georgia, the Carolinas on upward.....
What the.....

@Poodlepet2 You'll be fine. You prep as much as you can and then you let others and a higher power if you believe in that take care of the rest. Sounds like you've done all of that. Listen to the radio and your local authorities. They will never steer you wrong and next week this time, hopefully, Irma will be a lingering memory and life resumes as we all know it.
You have a lot of prayers and people thinking of you and your neighbors. As I said before Harvey, those affected will have more help than you all know what to do with before, during, and after this storm.
Stop the stress and do something fun. A movie, a game, a candlelit lunch or dinner for practice just in case, start that scrapbook, clean out that closet, etc to get all the nervous energy out. That stress will hurt you worse physically than this storm probably will. And if all else fails, go to bed and rest up before the storm potentially keeps you up all night.
You'll be fine!
