More Weather

[geminigirl]

It's pouring, again. And windy.

And the weather radio keeps waking the baby. This time it was a flash flood warning. There's not much in the way of elevation here, but we happen to be up a little bit of a hill...which doesn't mean the roads around us won't flood.

I want to cry right now.

i've been thinking about you. i hope you don't blow away!

[geminigirl]

Thanks. Looks like we won't blow away-just lots of water. And it's clear that my husband has never prepared for a hurricane before, based on what he left in the yard. Will have to teach him for next time.

How are your Dads doing?

nice! hopefully you didn't lose anything too awfully valuable!

dad is actually up here this week, so he's escaped all of the fun. ken got home on sunday evening & immediately went out for water, gas & other supplies (what exactly that means, i don't know). i think all is well at their house, just lots of rain. oddly enough i don't think they were as adequately prepared as they normally are for hurricane season, but i think they're okay.

Nothing valuable-more a question of "what if this had been more windy than rain?"

Water, gas, batteries, possibly rope or tarps, and canned goods. We also needed diapers-if we lost power, we'd have been without the ability to wash diapers.

I have company the last week of October-I forget the exact dates right now, but other than Naomi's six month well baby visit on the 15th, we're free. Let me know when you'll be here and we'll make some plans to have lunch.

oh hey - we'll be down there at some point in october. one day the boys are having a "boys only" day at one of the theme parks. any chance you'd want to try to hook up for lunch? not sure of dates yet, but i can let you know as we get closer to then.

Thinking of you and my relatives in Tampa -- hope Fay moves on soon. Tracking this one has been a bitch. She hasn't moved like any others I've followed. :(

[geminigirl]

She's stuck. They're talking about 30 inches of rain east of us. It's amazing how much we've gotten inland, too.
