I pray that everyone hit by this storm recuperates from it quickly with the help from the whole country and can rebuild their lives.

We prepared for the worst and had a plan in mind in case we had to leave home in a hurry. We even packed a bag with important papers and belongings. I am just glad is all over now and pray everyone affected recuperates soon.

I have a button maker tool, but I couldn't use since we were trying to cover the existing buttons. It all worked out in the end. You know I am hardheaded.

I am so impressed with the stool makeovers. You both did a very rofessioal job on them and they show up much better now.
