Throwback Thursday: Hurricane Laura And Ninja Turtles

Hard to believe that it’s been five years….

While looking through some old posts, this one from December 20, 2020, the year that Hurricane Laura destroyed my family’s home, popped up in my search string. Although today is December 11, I decided to reblog this old post. Maybe it’s because I’m turning fifty next year, but I’ve been feeling really nostalgic lately and I have been revisiting good and bad memories. This one is particularly bad, one of my worst memories, but it’s what makes me who I am. We’ve all been broken in different ways, but it is when we are broken that we can mend ourselves into something stronger.

Oh, and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles ornaments that I mention in this old post actually survived the hurricane. My KISS ornaments, however, have been lost. While I’d love to have my KISS ornaments back, having the silly Ninja Turtles ornaments is fine enough for me.

Merry Christmas, everyone.
