Isaac and Me"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>I\u2019ve lived in New Orleans all my life and have dealt with many hurricanes; some bad, most not so bad.\u00a0 I didn\u2019t have a \u201clight bulb\u201d moment, a revelation or epiphany during Isaac but I did learn some things.\u00a0 But first I\u2019ll summarize what I consider is important to know about hurricanes and then I\u2019ll tackle Isaac.<\/p>\n<p>Houzz recently had a timely ideabook about disaster preparedness\u00a0 you may want to review.<\/p>\n<p>Betsy-1965.\u00a0 We lived in the house I live in today-a converted barn with lots of French doors and a big screened porch which provided cross-ventilation.\u00a0 We were without power for a week and literally lived on that screened porch.\u00a0 I had a 6 month old baby and there was diaper service but no disposable diapers, and no instant formula.\u00a0 We had a milkman who stopped every day to see if I needed a bottle (glass) of milk and a chunk of ice to put in a cooler to keep it cool.\u00a0 I had a gas stove.\u00a0 My neighbors didn\u2019t.\u00a0 I cooked all their frozen food-roasts, pies, etc.\u00a0 My kitchen was hotter than Hades!\u00a0 While we were eating \u201chigh on the hog\u201d, people in flooded areas across town were hungry.<\/p>\n<p>Katrina, The Big One-2005.\u00a0 The only hurricane for which I ever evacuated.\u00a0 I watched from Atlanta as my beloved city drowned in waters from failed, ill-constructed and poorly maintained canals.\u00a0 Society was more sophisticated by 2005.\u00a0 I just kept calling my phone and when I got the answer machine, we knew the power was back on.\u00a0 All types of services were spotty at first but things slowly (all too, I think) returned to a degree of normalcy if you ignore the empty business, homes and hospitals still vacant after seven years.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ve had a few hurricanes since then but nothing memorable until last week when Isaac came to town and it wasn&#8217;t even categorized as major. \u00a0 It was slow arriving, stalled and then was slow leaving at 6 miles per hour.\u00a0 I have never before been in a hurricane lasting 52 hours and dumping flooding rain and winds on an area already soaked from rains the previous week .\u00a0 All our sophisticated knowledge couldn\u2019t do one thing to control that event!\u00a0 But, because of the technology, I can stay 2 blog posts ahead of schedule during hurricane season from June to November.\u00a0 The other things I do during hurricane season include filling the tank with gas when it gets to half empty, never, never having a full freezer and keepong $500 in cash on hand!\u00a0 I\u2019m writing this in Word on September 4th and hope to have internet, cable and land line restored by next week.\u00a0 My cell and my car are the only means of communication right now.\u00a0 I can read my emails, but can\u2019t reply.\u00a0\u00a0 Here&#8217;s where my internet and land line connection currently resides, tied with a yellow rope.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-9303 size-full\" title=\"hurricane Isaac 008\"

learned that generosity can come back to bite you.\u00a0 I invited 2 friends who did not have garages to park their cars in my 4-car garage where they would be a lot safer and none of us would have to ride out the storm alone.\u00a0 We did just fine until 4 a.m. on the 29<sup>th<\/sup> when the neighbor\u2019s water-logged tree uprooted taking another tree and 4 utility poles with it and blocking

really nice meals including wine with everything prepared on 4 stove top burners.\u00a0 I was determined not to heat up the kitchen by using the oven.\u00a0 I\u2019m now thinking about writing a
