Glad you all are OK, that must have been really awful worrying about your daughter - I would have been climbing the walls !!!

River - stay warm and dry - I can remember getting caught out on the river when a sudden afternoon storm came up while kayaking -- with nowhere to go, that is my worst storm memory !!!! --- - hope you don't have similar memories !!! Talk about feeling like a paddling duck / lightning strike target - that is what we felt like !!!

Will be watching for others to check in....
Glad your OK, snoodles, was thinking about you this morning. My part of town is fairly OK, my yard is full of big tree limbs. My daughter is in the Carolinas, so now time to worry about her!

Weather was very scary lastnight! (felt like a bad repeat of last Tuesday)

Schools are closed here (roofs ripped off of some and no power at many). So far 7 deaths reported. Lots of damage.

We were very blessed, our power is back on this morning and only gutters damaged, tree limbs blown around etc.


Hope everyone's safe and will check in when they can.

Thank you for thinking of me Marcia,

Yes, I woke to all the rain and the warnings on TV and my emergency weather alerter thingy was screaching at me - so I decided to work from home but now - all is fine. I think we have been lucky.

I did go outside to check on my little pond fish to make sure they hadn't washed right out of their pond !!! They are fine - the pond is pretty deep in the center and they are all just sitting down at the bottom.

The extremes in temperatures are amazing !!!

My mom and sister are safe thank God. My mom called sissy at 3am to tell her to get in the storm shelter. The tornado was just down the road from her. The worse damage by sissy was about an hour from Huntsville Alabama.

Susan, my mom is in Fayetteville TN, where does yours live?

I hope everyone is safe. I was thinking about Pickles when I saw Memphis, Tkrik, TwoKidsTwoCats (Pam) when it hit near Toney Alabama, ...so many! I pray they are OK.

We are getting buried under tons of snow right now. Daisy, hang on, we may have to dig a tunnel.

Wow! Your mom is in Fayetteville? Small world....ever hear of Pulaski? That is where my mom is. I lived there a few years while helping her take care of my father before he passed away. I graduated from Martin Methodist College.

Teehee, we were looking at houses to buy in Pulaski! It is a small world!

Chris, I notice you are also a Ga Gal...I live in Toombs, how far away are you?

I've met some of our board buddies(MSW) over the years and will be going to NC in March to visit one that is no longer on the boards.

I still keep in contact with a few that don't post any longer...

The wind is blowing here but the sun is still shining...we are supposed to get rain by nightfall. The wind has blown all my windchimes all over the place...I have two that are wind proof and they have been chiming all day. lol
