Rich's mom is safe and sound in NC.
She landed with no problems and now she and dad are going to ride out the storm. Rich and I (and most of our neighbors) spent yesterday evening packing up lawn furniture, etc. and packing our sheds and garages. Only problem - today's trash day so by the time we get home, our garbage cans will be who knows where. Can hardly wait.
In this area, the storm watch has been changed to a storm warning which basically means "we don't THINK it's coming, we KNOW it's coming".
But it's supposed to pass mostly south and west of us so we'll get lots of wind and some rain. Biggest problem will probably be tree limbs falling and taking down power lines. The warning is supposed to last through 5:30 tomorrow evening. Some local schools are already closed. Gonna be a wicked couple of days.
Have I mentioned I'm a stress eater?
Still thinking of DNW and how she's doing. Praying to God several times a day to watch over her and help her in her sorrow. Carol, if you're reading this, please know that we're here for you and let us know if there's anything we can do for you.
Bob is in a better place than this earth and he is watching over you to.
I have to go. I'll talk to you all later.
