Oh! no! maybe it's time to go for a visit with someone inland....We have had a lot of rain today. We are just at flood stage already. We are preparing for the possibility of power outages. Stocking up on gasoline for the generator, batteries, filling our emergency water container (tomorrow), and making sure that anything in the yard that can blow away is put away. We even put the pool cover on the pool early. Lot's more to do...If it comes up the Chesapeake like the one storm model has it, we will have to move my daugther out of the upstairs and pack her stuff in the garage until after the storm...(we have 3-80 ft Pin Oaks close to the house). We will do what we can to prepare. This might turn out to be another "Agnus" (1972). Yes, I'm old enough to remember. Wish all is well....just keep yourself safe....and evacuate if you need to.

We had alot of wind....we actually never did lose power. We lost cable, internet and phone for about 5 hours....and that was it. Was a little bummed, because on the episode of Jersey Shore that aired last night, Mike "The Situation" gets knocked out....and they played it at 7pm last night, well before TV came back on at 11:30...but, the good thing is, they re-play Jersey Shore, like 9000 times during the week....

I know, I know, I DON'T want to watch Jersey Shore, but it's like a train wreck. I WANT to look away....but I can't........
