yes, yes, we’re fine here / scary storm pictures
After receiving a few worried email messages, I thought it best to post and let ya’ll know that there was no tornado at my house. All’s well. When I took the girls to the basement, Lily quietly sat in her cage and watched the TV news and Frieda went back and forth between the two windows, yowling. See? Animals KNOW!
I was going to work out and let loose on my punching bag (Mm Hmm) but the sound freaked the girls out. M was out golfing but not in an area that was in the storm’s path so we didn’t worry about him too much (until he called and said he was driving home - yipes!).
Having watched all manner of horror story regarding hurricanes, tornadoes, floods and other natural disasters, I get a little edgy when those sirens go off.
(When I first-first moved here, I thought for sure the world was ending when at noon one Wednesday the sirens started ringing. M had neglected to tell me that they test those things every Wednesday at noon. Knowing me as you do, you can imagine that I was waiting for the giant horses to go galloping by, followed by other creepy Biblical stuff… a la “The Rapture.”)
