If any of ya'll need a place to stay with power, warm food, and/or take a shower, head on over to my place if you'd like.

Since those without power would be unable to read this, pass along the word by mobile phone or carrier pigeon.

 

I think the cell phone tower is down or something - me n Missy have NO service. It's pretty likely that no one else does either.
If their water isnt on, and their power isnt on - their phones probably dont work either.

 

i still got cell service. we dont have ANY water though. this sucks . all we have is power. i wonder if anyone else in henrico has water. i know chesterfield co has water. ugh. booooooo bad storm!

 

Henrico has no power for the water pumps. Just downhill water pressure and water in the lines. Everyone here was able to take showers but it felt like it was out of a hose.

 

water pressure over here at chris's is the shiznit! chris is a pimp today - chics everywhere

Where is the sausage?!

 

We aren't supposed to do anything with the water. 2 days with this long hair makes for some nasty stuff.

 

I have 3 milk jug size, bottles of water. And a crate of 1 Liter Aquafina bottles. Blus 2 "Martha Stewart" 1 & 1/2 gallon jugs full of water.

AND I DON'T NEED THEM!!

So if anyone needs water, let me know. My power kicked in at 9:30 a.m. Friday morning, and I never lost running water. I spent my whole paycheck prepping for this Hurricane and I didn't use anything that I bought.

 

Was this your first category 2 hurricane? Learn from the experience and that of others as to how you should prepare next time. Soon, you too can laugh at the H2 Humvees rolling through Ukrops stocking up on frozen microwave dinners.

 

Yeah it was my first. I COMPLETELY Over Prepared. They made it seem like this place was going to be nonexistant. I am in the Military and "Well of Course" the Military ALWAYS over-exaggerates when it comes to stuff like this.

 

sad thing is, everyhtign gets nuts liek this anytime ther eis bad weather liek a ice strom or anyhtign....so this time it jsut happened that soem ppl ended up with contaminted water and all...
