Eeekkkk.... it's spooky out there. As Jack would say and did say (a few times today). 2 storms in one day. 2 storms that were a little unsettling because of the tornado watch warnings and the numerous facebook posts of people reporting tornado's spotted in various places. And of course Kelly was gone on the road during the first storm which just added to my unsettled stomach.
I never know when to take action. I was the only adult who could protect my little munchkins if something went wrong. I know I over think emergency situations and usually have a plan; like move the beds away from the window just in case if the lightening gets too close. I plan ALL future emergencies so if by chance something does happen; I am ready. The only thing that holds me back is my forgetful mind. All the planning in the world won't help if I can't remember. I have always been like this. I remember back when I was a just a little girl and I would lay in bed and execute my fire escape or what I would do if we were robbed. Still to this day- these are the things that will keep me up at night. Silly silly girl. I thought I had to have the plan (in my eight year old little mind). But now, I DO have to have the plan! Eeeekkkkk..... the responsibility!
Thank goodness Kelly is THE weatherman at our house and keeps track of all the pressure systems, trends, etc. etc. As much as I make "fun" of the numerous comments through out the day "Oh Prince Albert is going to get nailed" and "Alana, come look at this pressure system"- I do feel a little safer when he's in the room. And in the house. And in the yard. Well; even just in the city. Even if he has no clue what he's talking about ;)
Hope everyone is staying safe out there. I know I am cuddled up on the couch and keeping my eye on the weather network. I mean, cause you can never be too safe.
