A big disappointment! For days, my neighbors and people at church were stressing me out about this hurricane. Oh, we have to watch out for flooding and tornados. Make sure you have water, batteries, food. Billy got called into work Sunday to get the planes out of here. I ran to Walmart to get some things so we would be prepared if we lost electricity or water, which was a madhouse. I hate going to walmart anyway, but it was insane. Mike got me some sandbags, since Billy was at work. All day Monday Billy and I got the house ready for this big storm bringing everything inside the garage and putting sandbags out. The governor even canceled school Tuesday and Wednesday. We were ready and bunkered in. We waited and waited some more. It was just two rainy days! Nothing big, barely any wind. No big flooding down pours. I thought I would have a good story to tell. Maybe next week since Ike and Josephine are still out there. Looks like Hanna is going to the Carolinas.
Here's our hurricane damage. A branch fell on a tree in our back yard, but it may have been weak anyway. I doubt the wind we had was strong enough to do it. Oh, well. Better safe than sorry. I supposed with all the Katrina mess a few years ago it was the idea to be better prepared. Thanks to all who called to check in on us and your prayers. They worked!
