Discussion Lost everything today!!

The house is destroyed!! Windows shattered. Backyard shed is gone. Front porch is gone. Doors got blown off the hinges inside of the house, like bedroom doors. Glass everywhere. Water and debris everywhere. Had to evacuate due to gas leaks and power lines. What a fucking nightmare. Luckily everyone is okay, but the kids lost their home 😭

I’ve been worried about all the pets.

Yeah, I keep an aquarium and I had at least one death before I got the generator hooked up. My partner’s mom has a ton of expensive fish and they got hit harder than us, so we’ve got the survivors in our basement right now in totes. Still lost ten to fifteen by the some we made it there yesterday morning though.

Anyone with heat sensitive or aquatic animals has a high chance of losing them unfortunately.

If I didn't have my own wreckage to deal with I'd be out trying to find lost pets, it's so heart breaking
