It's funny: a hurricane goes from something you only see on the weather channel and hear about on the radio to something you can actually see and feel the beginnings of in a matter of hours. It's when the sky goes gray and the wind picks up that you realize that a bad-ass storm is only a few hundred miles away and slowly moving in your direction. My Thurday night class is cancelled and the kids will be out of school Thursday and Friday.
Pessimist that I am, I feel rather optimistic about this one. We've only moved further inland because of a hurricane once, and we didn't suffer any damage when we came home, so I'm expecting about the same results: fallen tree limbs and not much else.
Anyway, after I post this I don't anticipate being here again until maybe Friday. So take care and cross some fingers. Not just for me: Leesh is a few hours west of me, Jenjen's somewhere in the DC area, and of course the past board members who are in SC.
So....I guess that's it. Goodbye. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Stay safe, crazy and everyone else. I'm glad it was downgraded to a category 2. Hopefully, it will be just some nasty wind and rain, but not too damaging.
I'll send positive thoughts your way.
*hugs*

I'm just wondering...
How come every time that a hurricane comes, there's newspeople standing on the beach, holding on to their rain gear in all that rain, with the big waves coming in behind them? I mean, come on, it's a freakin' hurricane! Run for your lives!
Glad I don't have that job...
