~BAD Weather Again!~

I didn't post yesterday and I have a

good reason why, look at that photo.

It was taken at 1030 am. Its pitch dark

out and the wind was awful.. I turned

the TV on and it said we had 6 minutes

and a tornado would be here! I had just

sent Penny to the store! I rushed to the

door and she was still in the driveway, I

yelled at her to come back in the house just

as the tornado sirens went off. Talk about

scared! That's putting it mildly.
I had Penny get the cat carrier out of the

laundry room and put it in the closet and I

made sure I knew where the boys were. I

had the TV on to a local channel and the

channel went off air. Penny phoned her

hubby and they were all running for cover.

She phoned her sister in Three Rivers and

Kathy and the kids were all in the basement

listening to things banging and flying around

outside. A tornado hit Centerville which is

12 miles west, went over us here in Colon and

touched down again in Coldwater which is 14

miles EAST... I think having 2 big lakes right

here in the middle of town helps us. We were

so scared it was awful...But we are ok.
I called Donnie as he lives just west of Three

Rivers about 20 miles and he said limbs came

down and hit his sun room and fell across his

driveway. He lives on a lake. Amber and the

kids were fine, no damage to the house. It

was a awful day yesterday. I called Penny last

night about 6 to make sure she made it home

ok, she has to go thru Centerville to get to

Mendon, where she lives. She said trees were

down everywhere and it was awful. What a day.

That's what I hate about summer. We get 90

degree days then these storms come across

Lake Michigan building up force and we get it

worse than they do on the other side of the lake

over by Chicago.. Joys of summer...
sunflowers are growin!

I was so glad Joyce (the grasscutter) Carls wife,

didn't see Tigger taking a dump in her flower bed.

I sat and had to laugh at that cat. I thought it

was funny but Joyce if she had seen him would

probly have run him over with the mower! Carl

did fix the gutter last night after the storm. I

sure hope theyre done banging on this building.

No wonder my BP stays high :-)
hummer is still coming by :-)

I'm waiting for Travis to come by. He just

phoned and is on his way. Hes not been here

in awhile, something always seems to come

up when we have an appointment so it has to

be put off.. Today will work.. Hes here, gotta

go....

I'm still a GORGEOUS WEEBLE tho, keep

well and God bless...

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...
