Last night I posted a mumm looking for good places to get immediate local news. Was freaking out a lil. The good people of Fubar rocked my world with news, info, and love. I can't express how much those who talked with me helped me stay calm. And to post a mumm with not a single slam?? Well that just shows that people on this site understand and care for others and that mummers know which end is up so to speak.
Update for any people checking in...
Still haven't heard from my son, however, my Uncle in Nashville said all is well there. I called my Aunt in Macon county and she says there is just devastation everywhere. A church just up the road from her was demolished. A golf course by her was demolished. She is driving at this time (about 11 am PST) thru Hartsville where Columbia Gas blew up and the fire is out but the devastation is overwhelming to her. My cousin's wife's mother lost her home while she huddled in a closet but is alright herself. She said it was just black and she could feel the rain on her when it happened. She is in a bit of shock at this time. My Aunt has lost a friend who didn't make it and she knows one other lady that didn't make it. She is just up the road from my Dads lil house and she is gonna check in to see if he needs help... Her cell phone is dead now with all the calls she has made and received. Tennessee people just rock. The care shown to each other is amazing to me..... *hugs* to anyone that reads this.
I encourage anyone to send donations to the American Red Cross and Salvation Army. I have been watching the live streams as they come up and they need some assistance! Even 5 bucks-your cup of Starbucks... anyway...
Thank you again to everyone for last night. Fubar rocks went it counts!
