Bad Weather Tonight
Sure looks like we are in for a night of bad weather. First round of rain and wind have passed. Had a lot of lightning. The sky remains an ominous green, and when I step outside, it is ABSOLUTELY still. Spooky still. We are under a tornado watch, and hope it goes no further. Nevertheless, I have water and peanuts in the basement, have unplugged items, and have a bag of essentials to grab if sirens go off.

1. Keep on writing.
2. Get some balance in my life.
3. Lose weight. Hopefully 20# this year.
4. Continue to be looking for how God wants to use me this year.

It's been awful all day here in Nebraska. Rain and thunder...scaring the poo out of my dog.
Never underestimate the power of frugality!

Prayers going out for all you KANSAS people. Your getting hit hard. I'm in Illinois and we had some storms move through but alot of bad ones will be towards morning. Be safe.

Do take care.

Stay safe. Did you bring your parents to your house, just in case?
Cloudy here, but no storms expected. We've had some rain but could use a foot or two more, over a couple weeks or so of course.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

parents went to sister's house. We were worried about how they would make it into their basement if need be. But the worst of it missed us. Tornado hit west of us. We had hail, wind, lightning, but no damage other than leaves, etc. down. My son's area had it a little worse, but still not too bad. Could have been so much worse for us, as it was for those in OK and Kansas.

Two counties to the west of us suffered a great deal of damage. A little town 10 miles north of us was severely damaged. Whew....

Can you tell that I just can't get my mind around preparing for this type of thing????
