So what's been happening lately? We had our first official hurricane since we moved here.
But by the time it got to us it was Tropical Storm Hannah. Mind you it was a very strong tropical storm with 60 mph winds, but not a hurricane. That's Ok. But I had a headache for two days because I was so stressed out. I just didn't know what to expect. I was told by friends to get a deck of cards and booze and ride it out. It's time for a hurricane party. Party , no party I wanted to worry. Worry enough for everyone. The news does not help. It just goes on and on with possibilities and warnings. I got myself in a tizzy over it.
But I did put together a smashing hurricane kit (flashlights, duct tape etc.) 7 gallons of water per person, and made sure our tubs were filled up with water. I think that has to do with toilet flushing. I'm not sure, but the news said to do it, so I did. But we made it through.
Actually it was pretty boring and anti-climactic.
Oh well at lest I got my hurricane kit ready. Just in case...
