First-, has all the chileheads who tried to call/email last week ended up not. we are having fun, fun, fun (Friday Friday)-7 days.

As much as possible I have tried to keep informed the folks-I know a lot more, so this is was what has been running, and what is to come down at the end of the procedure.
-On Thursday, 9/11 was to evacuate Houston after early morning meeting of the customer (stuck in traffic for other films with 2 hours)
-Friday, 9/12: used is completed for the day was acquired by Hurricane generator at Home Depot, whim & stopped until all the Windows of the House.Find out and waited for it to hit.
-Saturday 9/13: power and leave the House in any way I woke up. Our street was denied access in both directions due to the trees torn from a downed f-16. Fortunately, not the trees fell on our yard-as you can see the pictures was a lot of debris.We went in the late afternoon downpour and helped the neighbors Remove trees and clean cars to pass on the street. Because I was, I jumped in the pool liotettava and bringing out the largest branches which had landed there.
-Sunday 9/14: Got with the wind/thunder with storm satellite debris still night I woke up and downed now are genuine. Spent the days of rain, the yard cleaning and picked up shit. All told, we wound up with the pine cones & pine sewing needles, pine branches the huge number of and a lot of random stuff that was dumped some 20 bags, our yard winds.
-Monday 9/14: starts the generator up and then immediately in a position, we must find more gas soon.40-mile drove and waited for row 3 hours 30. Great …
-Tuesday 9/15: Fed with that mess, we received at 5 in the morning and went looking for more gas. Sam's Club Open and was expecting $ 40 hours. better.
-Wednesday 9/16: still lies within the competence of the company now calls on the stream-us could be 2-3 weeks before we get the power. Sweet. We decided for the expenditure conforms to the House and drove back to the 80 nautical miles of the nearest city without gas purchases acquired enough to get the borders through Eventually bought the weekly, as well as telephone calls for lan (Wireless does not deal with any power DOH!), and with the outside world.
-On Thursday, 9/17: no power, but is not a truck sector. mobile phones do not yet work 100% and not companies are open.Our local market has been removed from the territory of the FEDERAL EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT AGENCY-, so now we cannot get Groceries-good our you stored. My buddy, who lives in the 20-mile north of the us not powered.
-Friday, 9/18: Finally, I need to open again-slight wind damage and some after floods. To see the life centre incorporated into Houston drive Laura & I and I spend a Missed work caught a couple of hours.We get back and our power!After some celebratory dance, a lot of time was spent on, paste all the back, re-programing and obtain all online.Whew.
-Saturday 9/19: return-power still out of friends, so we volunteer in our House the staging area and spend time getting to work of those who requested Normalcy beginsI had finally to the garage and trucks (light) and work on.Also visit the friends of your new baby to the hospital-the time the power was fortunately before 2 days.
-Sunday 9/20: the healthy normal life is here again.Our favorite Thai place is open again, so we made sure the order extra spicy food and finally relax.
-Monday 9/21: the first full day back at the Office.Holy shit is a nightmare.What normally takes 40 minutes one way lasted for almost 2 hours to get this blog post. Thinking of the evening, but how to get your home-Laura panicked phone call initiated his car does not start.Great I play Mario Cart freeway and make home fairly shitty traffic record in time-drop her in such a way that he taught his class and then come back home again and to assess the impact of the car is not a big problem in this battery is dead. Walmart went and picked up and installed new it-he is back in operation.

All-you think you're a week this power should be relaxing, but it was nothing but air does not means not.-Wikipedia, the meaning that, on the other hand, does not sleep. work is backed up and most of our clients has a status, which means low visibility/understanding downtime-so of course, everything is a priority. but if that, in turn, amenable to after such a destructive Hurricane worst, then I am happy man.

Now back to HSB stuff. before the Hurricane hit, I worked on things to a new server. Unfortunately, it is similar to a number of posts and comments were lost. most of the actions can be restored manually and than takes the new design is. continue to hold the damages payable to the designers in the Office, but once they are back in business, we have access to that in the meantime, rolled out a. I am intending to receive some of the work, make sure that all errors are worked and most of the plugins is back in the evening and work correctly-if you have problems, please drop me an email at nick.lindauer@gmail.com.
