Because of GUSTAV (and the mental scars left by Katrina) we left our home Saturday evening to head for my sister-in-laws home in Southhaven, MS (just south of Memphis, TN). After a very long and tiresome journey we finally arrived 8 hours later (this is normally a five hour trip). We finally received damage reports from my dearest husband(whom I miss soooo much right now), who stayed back home (because of work), --My moms house did have minor tree damage but everyone else seemed to do just fine!!! Hope all is well for everyone else:) I don't know about everyone else who evacuated but I am so ready to go back HOME!!! I know we still do not have power and St. Tammany Parish is officially closed for re-entry at this time--but I could so get in my car and drive the 5 hours it takes right at this moment!!!! I am just so anxious about what is going on and it is getting more difficult to get in touch with my husband and other family members on cell phones. Can't wait to get home--everyone stay safe.One more thing, even though it was nothing like Katrina--I am so glad we did not stay at home with my 2-year old and 3-year old!
