What a beautiful day here in PARADISE!


Did you ever feel like if you were capable that you would fly the people living in the devastation up there, down here to Florida for their own salvation and out of harms way? ‘If’, only goes through my mind daily, I wish there was a way for all those homeless people to be transplanted here…Heaven knows we have plenty of empty homes needing some TLC with lively bodies to care for them… Perhaps there could be a way to share this nearly perfect weather that neither calls for heat nor air-conditioning at this time of the year… We are so blessed and have so much in his place that we do refer to as ‘paradise’… I am serious; carpools, or charter planes, trains or buses could or would work to do the job lickety split! We personally can sleep a few people in our tiny home. I can remember an article months ago where Mayor Bloomberg wanted to ship the homeless in NYC to Florida, well sir now you have an exorbitant amount of homeless, i.e. Gov. Cuomo of your New York, Gov. Christie of New Jersey too and we have what your constituents want and need, a roof over their heads, electricity and more than they have now…SEND THEM! Somehow we can all figure out how to manage with enough logical input. We are, after all, AMERICANS! And taking care of each other is how we roll, true? Now as crazy as that may seem to most; I challenge anyone to come up with any better ideas on how to house over forty thousand people who no longer have any homes. It breaks my heart to know that. The only glitch I could possibly see is in they’re own rebuilding effort, and trailers that is FEMA ones, have been known to not be as beneficial as previously thought to be. Besides, right now, there is too much devastation or destruction to have a place to locate them that is the trailers. My previous idea would be a great temporary idea. The areas with mass debris could be cleaned and prepped by machines, since I know by now most people must have gotten as much personal stuff out as they could scrounge and then the heavy equipment could come in to take away the rest, not too bad an idea? Oh, I don’t know, but I wish I did. They may be much closer states or other areas of their home states that could relocate them temporary. But right now is when the need is, true many are getting electric back that have homes, but this is about the ones that don’t… Let’s all try hard along with the disaster people to try to come up with many more ideas and sooner more than later, okay? I do try hard not obsess about it, sounds heartless to some, but if the truth be known Hurricane Katrina, 2005, is what may have triggered my own PTSD and reminded me of our own home being destroyed in Hurricane Charley, 2004, with us in it! So I have to distract myself or I get too worried and helpless; especially now that I am unable to physically help them. So as much as I would love to throw some more ideas out to all of you and wait here to catch your brilliant ideas that you will most definitely throw back; instead allow me to be the first to wish all of you a very happy good night and ask you kindly to count all your blessings and to share those overages and we will too! And next time please be here or be square, ya hear?
