So Ivan was '04? I have killed a few brain cells since then. :eek:

Ivan was Sept 2004, and Dennis was July 2005

One of my best friends bought their first ever beach house on old scenic 98, for close to one million. :yikes:

They bought in August of 2004, had not even stayed in it and then in Sept. Ivan hit and took out the entire lower level.

They had it repaired and she and I came down and redecorated in Feb. 05. They spent one week there for Spring Break and then they spent the week of July the 4th and, then here comes Dennis. We were suppose to stay there in August of that year.

Building was condemmed after that and just recently they sold the land.

I never even got to stay there, after all my hard work helping redecorate. :bang:

:blink::shock: i could not do that. why that? what interests you about that?

I have a friend in the business and she has taught me some things about it.

What actually started me thinking about it was, after my mom passed away and I went and did her makeup and hair because she begged me too. You see my mom shaved her eyebrows and then always drew them back on with eye pencil. She always said "Honey, please make sure my eyebrows are on during the viewing". So I did. I figured it was the last thing I could do for. I also figured if I could do it for my mom, I could do it for anyone. I would like to do it for the families left behind. Believe me I know it is not all about hair and makeup, but I still would love to do it.

I have to go to bed. I am tired. I think I might have already said this. Thank you all for conversing with me tonight. Hopefully, I will have enough in me to continue tomorrow.

DD, go to bed!!! You have a long trip ahead of you. Stay safe. :love:

That is right Sept. 04. Wow, did you have any damage?

Nope, we were very lucky.
