~~We are still here.....~~

Wow, needless to say, no pictures to post but I did want to say, we SURVIVED Irene!~~~  As she slammed the Carolinas, I was here and my husband was at the condo at the beach....praying....  We came out with minimal damage at both locations....

Irene remains a major threat to the US and for all of those people north of me who have endured her wrath, or are in the process of getting pounded right now, I pray for your safety....Homes and posessions can be replaced but lives are too precious to risk~ Stay in and soon the sun will be out again and calm will overcome...

Happy stitching everyone and soon I hope to have a Fredricka update.........

Until then,  ((Hugs)) from the carolinastitcher....

Faye -

So glad you made it through in pretty good shape.

Lots of clean up and grief for many. Glad it wasn't worse than it was.

We are here in NJ, and also have a home on the Jersey shore. Our main home survived with minimal damage -- we hope to get to our beach house tomorrow to check on things. Our town there had a mandatory evacuation -- and we do not have any idea what the damage might be.... I'm happy to hear that things were okay at both of your locations.... it is scary not knowing what to expect.

I, too, pray for everyone who has been in her path....
