Response- Comments

My weakest post so far I think is my "Hurricane Isaac" post. Dr.D said in her comment to use more detail so I am going to try again even though writing non informational  posts isn't exactly my thing.
      I was sitting at my kitchen table reading The Alchemist when my lights shut off, I jolted and dropped my book, it was nothing compared to what was coming. Outside the wind was blowing and whistling making my heart beat hard when I see my mom frantically picking up my phone. I began shooting questions at her, What happened? Is everyone ok? Why are you acting like that? She put down her phone and told my that Paw Paw was on their roof trying to secure the metal sheet. My mouth dropped and I think of their house, so safe and warm and now I can only imagine my grandfather wet and blowing in the wind. I looked at her with a face of disbelief.
     I sat for ten minuets with my stomach twisted into knots, just waiting, for news. My mom walked into the room and I stood up and she told me Paw Paw got off the roof and he is fine but the house isn't. I couldn't have cared less that the house was soaked I sat down and relief rushed over me, a goofy smile spread across my face.
