Here We Go!

It's raining. It's windy. It's starting.

I'm hearing now the eye looks to come in at Vero Beach. Damn - that's where we met Frances.

It's not too bad here, but it's rather unnerving hearing how Tampa, Sarasota, Bradenton, St. Pete are all preparing also. This is gonna be one big storm (again).

I've called everyone to let them know I'm staying at the house. I've got everything ready. Safe room is set up with water blanket, pillow, flashlight, book and my favorite cookies. I'm doing laundry right now and finishing up cleaning the kitchen. Hey - at least my house has been cleaned pretty well with all the storms - you know my saying - Can't have a dirty house with a hurricane comin'!

So....as things progress I'll let ya'll know. Right now I'm worried about Bou, Bug, Pam and every one else down there.

I'll worry about me around Midnight - unless they tell me otherwise!!

6:45p Saturday and so far all is well...

My sister in law keeps calling to ask "How's the weather?" but other than that nothing out of the ordinary. Just driving rain and winds that make it difficult to stand. This is not Frances, that much is for sure...!

Stay safe!

Stay safe - and get yourself into your safe room when those high winds hit!!!!! Don't make me come down there and yell at you!

I'll try calling tomorrow and see how you're doing. Hopefully you will still have phone service! Are there other people in the neighborhood or are you alone again??? Take care - I'm worried about all of you.

It's comin' in big now here. This is going to be ugly, but at least she's movin' fast.

Isn't it funny how we all clean and do laundry before one hits? I go on this cleaning binge. Then I get bored after it hits and clean some more!
