Rude awakening

[KnottedYet]

Oh, goodness! Glad it didn't land *on* the house. and the bike blinkie was a great idea!

Yes, I'm so glad it missed the house!

If you tell your insurance company that water is going to get in, they will usually send someone to put a tarp over that part. Unless there's widespread damage in your area, which would mean they're too busy.

We've lost three trees since we moved into this house, so I feel for ya.

I love my neighborhood!

One of the guys who parks on my street all the time came to the door this morning and said he'd take care of whatever part of the tree the county left behind. And he helped me put a tarp over the exposed area and reconnected the gutter as well as could be done, given that it's all bent up. Might as well give my neighbor some business and let the insurance company pay him.

I feel much better now that I don't have to wait for State Farm's contractor to show up and do that job today.
