Today water entered our home and it was the scariest thing I ever encountered... I always felt safe in my own home, but now I realize how fickle life is.

Hence, why some folks choose to stay, they think they can help keep their home at the very least stable, but water will win, sad, feeling extremely lucky here in South Florida🙏🏻
