Fugly Weather
Well, we finally had something to do besides watch the grass grow last night. There were reports of 11 tornados in the middle TN area but they all hit either north or south of us, so they weren't really all that close. Just enough to make me extremely nervous. We didn't have any damage in our area either, so that is a blessing. It was kind of funny though, because as the sirens went off while we were eating dinner and were debating whether or not we should head for the basement. I heard a knock on the door and my niece-in-law and her Aunt wanted to hole up in our basement. We ended up with our family plus 5 neighbors holed up down there for a while, while our other neighbor was outside watching the wind pick up as the tornado sirens went off a second time. I like the guy, but I do think he is nuts. Daniel and Lea Anna just enjoyed the party. It was in the 70's yesterday and it's in the 40's today. This place is crazy!

We didn't get all the rain that was promised (thank you!) but yeah, it went from almost summerlike to Arctic chill overnight. Brrrrr!
Glad y'all were/are safe & sound.
Are you, like, the ONLY house with a basement or something? 'Cause you could TOTALLY charge an entrance fee if the real thing actually hits!
Most of the houses on the next two blocks don't have basements, and none of the ones across the street from us do. It would be kind of mean to charge admission in a crisis since they are family, even if they are in-laws. Still - think of the commercial potential. Hey, next time I can drag the microwave down and sell popcorn. Coffee too. The possibilities are endless! :D
