~Take Cover~

I had been sitting in the kitchen watching it storm, the lightening
flashes were constant.. It was really bad out.. I rolled back into
my bedroom, I thought perhaps I would check the weather channel
just to see what was going on or headed here.. As the channel
changed the first words I heard were "If you are in the Three Rivers,
Colon, Sturgis, Coldwater area, TAKE COVER IMMEDIATELY!"
I about fell out of my chair ! Scared the daylights otta me.. I turned
this chair around, soon as I checked the power gauge, I KNEW
with a storm this bad I was sure we would lose power..we didn't..

I turned around and rolled into my closet, and continued to watch
the TV, the boys sat right next to me..They were very nervous, I
didn't even have to call them OR get the bag of treats to bribe
them in there! I was VERY glad..I listened to the TV guy give the
time the storm would be here, we had 4 minutes it said.. I sat
and waited, nothing else I could do..Nothing happened.. The
lightening continued for a while but that's all.. I was VERY glad..
That really scared me.. It said the Elkhart and South Bend area
and CHICAGO got it very bad.. I was gonna call and check on
my sister as she was right in the path too.. And Penny.. I heard
that Three Rivers had trees down all over.. I hope shes ok... I
would be lost with out Penny...

This keyboard on this laptop drive me nuts..If I hit the wrong key
I can delete whole paragraphs! I just wrote one , my finger hit
some key and it all disappeared! Plus when I hit the shift key
on the left, to make a capitol letter my pinky hits the a key and
I bet I type an A with just about every other word I type.. I don't
like hot keys and I think that's what it is.. These laptops are so
different than a desktop. Great to have for a spare..I'm glad I
have this one.. Ive still not gotten the bug out of my HP desktop.
I am waiting to hear from my friend in the UK that is gonna tell
me how to fix it I hope I can do it.. Well if I cant and ruin it..... I
cant use it now anyway..buttttt I hope I can..

We made chicken breasts with yellow rice.. It was VERY good..
I sure enjoyed it.. I gave the boys a taste, they did too..I used
that packaged VIGO Yellow Rice. I gave some to all the kids..
we all enjoyed it.. :-) Thats what Im having for lunch today..We
made enough for all of us.. :-) Even YOU ! Wanna come for
lunch?" :-)


Anyhoway, we survived.."Thank You Lord!" This GORGEOUS
WEEBLE is hungry and its almost post time too. .. remember...
I shall return!! :-)


Always, Lois ****

"God Bless You" is my prayer today,
I'm honored to call you 'friend'.
I pray the Lord will keep you safe,
Until I write again...
