I will pray for a speedy recovery! 🙏
Funny you should mention the utilities; when we lived in Colorado, ours was underground and we never lost power in the entire time we lived there!
We moved here where everything is above ground and it's just ridiculous! There are so many splices in the lines around here that they are more metal than regular wire! It's a wonder it even works at all!
I'm glad your family is safe. You are correct; we are prepared. There is nothing though to help the unsettledness that comes when knowing a tree just might not miss the house this time.
Take care and enjoy the upcoming weekend!
