Busy Sunny Saturday

I'm listening to updates on the aftermath and we still don't know
how many casualties.

Greed always rears it's ugly head and we're having gas price gouging.
Walmart even gouged on the ice , well that's the way it seems. They have
to answer for it. One man was shot 3 times as he entered a man's business
as he was attempting to loot. He died later.

We still have a curfew and a news lady was stopped around 2:00 AM on
her way to work and was finally cleared.

I have to return to Walmart today for white cornmeal I forgot yesterday.
God willing, Andy and his family will be here for a square meal and to buy
gas locally. They live about 12 miles from town and still in the dark and
so blessed to be safe. (I'm probably  repeating) Andy said they couldn't
see their hand in the dark where they are located.

I have to leave shortly and get back home  to cook. The G-Grands will be
here and I figure Kassey will watch them from a distance.
Gotta get going.....

Closet, My Side Of The Story..........Kassey

I was not happy when Mom told me that we may have
to go into the closet again. She scooped me in my cube
and here we went again hiding from the storm. We got
out briefly for visits to the little rooms and I had to have
a few bites. Before it was all over, I wanted to bite Mom.

I was switched from the cube to the PTU coz I was deter-
mined to escape the next time she opened that door. I did
escape and then I was crammed into the PTU.
When we heard hail hitting the roof, Mom said 'it's here'. But it didn't stay long. Mom
was talking to Someone, but she wasn't talking  on the phone at the time. He kept us safe again.

Mom had leaky eyes when she read comments left on her post. We are so grateful for
our blog family and for the purrs and prayers.
Be safe and Blessed.

Thankful Thursday

We were spared from the awful tornadoes. Kassey sure
was glad to leave the closet. She really tried to be good.
She did growl some when I opened the door a little to watch
through the window. It rained hard and hailed briefly. I was
texting with Kim as the hail beat the roof..( My car seems to
be dent free, thank God.)
Kim said TN son was sleeping for his night shift later. They
were OK at the time and then I heard later it was headed
toward Manchester. I was listening to TV and the scanner.
They were spared but his pickup now has a tree or large
limb on the truck bed, bending the frame. It could have been
so much worse. God was so good to us again as He's been
so often during troublesome times.
They also got flying debris as did his brother who lives about
15 minutes from me.

Andy and his family never had to go into the shelter. However,
it left them in the dark like so many others. They plan to grill the
meat from the freezer. And God willing, I will add a pot of beans.
They can grill veggies as well, sounding yummy already.

Sheila and the D-I-L's and the Grands came by on their way to
Walmart. I'm relieved that the road from here to their home isn't
littered will debri. So I shouldn't have to worry about nails,etc.

Today is the first opportunity to get online since the storms as the
web connect stick has been testy. I called them and of course,
he used the weather for an excuse. I told him that this has hap-
pened before when nothing was going on. I started visiting but
could not comment.

It's dark now and you know who has been hinting for me to close
now. I hope all our friends were kept safe.
Blessings to all.

Silly Forgetful Mom.......Kassey

Yesterday Mom opened the windows and the birds
were so happy and singing. I begged to go out coz
I  just knew I'd catch one of those sweet things.

Mom got so busy and as it turned cooler,she closed
windows.. But she forgot her bedroom window. She
was in the kitchen as she smelled an outside visitor.
We never saw the skunk but he left his calling card..

As Mom types, I'm sitting in the bedroom window
listening to the happy sounds of our feathered friends.
