How Ya'll Are?

As Justin Wilson used to say “How ya’ll are?” Well I’ll tell you right now I am beat. As you may have heard North Columbus got pounded by the tornados Thursday. We at MCSD got Friday off due to roads being blocked early in the morning. So I went over to a friend’s folks house over in Brookstone (I had never met her folks before Friday). Brookstone was one of the areas that got slammed the worst. Has anyone seen Band of Brothers? Well there were several areas that looked like the forest where the soldiers were trying to hold the line around Bastogne. I kid you not it looked like a war zone. So anyway when we got there my wife and I decided to jump in and help. I figured, heck I got the day off I might as well do something productive. Plus an honest day of hard work never killed anyone. So I got to chopping and hauling. I went back over today with my father in law and did more chopping and hauling while he got to play with the chain saw. We left around 1:30 or so today and I’m pooped.
So Friday People were diving by and gawking and I noticed a few out of place cars drive by here and there. I had mentioned to the Plott’s to make sure their house was locked tonight when they were done for the day because I thought some passers by may be casing some of the houses. Well guess what? I was right. When I asked today if anybody was missing anything, I was told a couple of the houses that got hit really badly had some things stolen like big screen TV’s and whatnot. Man you have got to be pretty low down to rip off someone who has almost lost everything in a storm. Friggan Looters! Some people help the less fortunate some people prey on them.
I hope I can teach my students to help because most of them are less fortunate. Unfortunately I think a few of them, given the opportunity would jack a big screen TV because they are less fortunate. I know I need to be more positive.
Sooooooo…………… Remember when I said and honest day of hard work never killed anyone? Well an honest day of hard work will make you sore the next day.
Now I’m beat and I’m going to try to take a nap. TTFN
