Maybe Irene will do some good and blow them out to sea.<br /><br />We expect Irene tonight. It is 8 am and the sky is grey, the air is extremely humid and my yard is full of mushrooms. Don't think we can take much more rain, but they are calling for 10" in our county. Got as much inside and underneath as I can, now we are just waiting for this to come and go quickly.Starting Over, Accepting Changes - Maybehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06032033918798053005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7470877934076705573.post-23290772122264875452011-08-26T20:51:26.488-04:002011-08-26T20:51:26.488-04:00Good luck, kiddo.

The weathermen and politicians are gettting frantic about this storm and it looks like the real deal. Today, however, is sunny and there is not a cloud in the sky. I am going to Home Depot to get a supply of bungee cords to hold things that are too heavy for me to move. I am sure it will do little good, but hey, I am making the effort. Being inland, we are only supposed to get a tropical storm which could mean lots of rain (the ground is already saturated from the past 2 week's rain) and strong winds. I am sure there will be plenty of trees down - hopefully not on my house. <br /><br />I pray we will all be safe and the precautions made will help allieviate the damage in the aftermath.Starting Over, Accepting Changes - Maybehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06032033918798053005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7470877934076705573.post-63926261648304908592011-08-26T04:35:09.727-04:002011-08-26T04:35:09.727-04:00I hope the storm passes you by and you remain safe...I hope the storm passes you by and you remain safe-thoughts and prayers are with the people whose path it may cross.xJanethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14332488482591438589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7470877934076705573.post-27369300769062365742011-08-26T02:20:16.400-04:002011-08-26T02:20:16.400-04:00Hello Arleen:

Even up here, they're acting like it's the end of the world. Everybody panic! How many hurricanes have we all lived through, and almost every time it's some rain, some wind and some flooding and nothing more. It's like they want us to live in fear all the time!Austanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05568578637922817033noreply@blogger.com
