Waiting on a Hurricane



Wednesday at 4:49 am

Michael is due to make landfall this afternoon. Currently it's expected to be a Cat. 4 when it does come ashore. Even at this point, there are still a lot of variables that will affect exactly what happens in my area.

All kinds of words are being tossed around: monstrous, historic, etc. etc. They said much the same of Irma last year about this time. I've done all I can and now there is just the waiting, waiting, waiting. I'm very much like my cats - I like my routine, and would much rather be going to work tomorrow instead of doing this waiting.

Since I have done all I can, I'm starting to wear out on the news reports. It's increasing my anxiety without giving me any more options or resources. It's in God's hands now.

See you soon!!!!

  3. I've been hearing all kinds of adjectives for Michael a lot, too. Waiting and uncertainty about what is going to happen are really hard to bear. I hope you all will be OK and you can resume normal routine as soon as possible xo

  6. Oh no Leia and Toby...are you all in the Pan Handle area? I'm so sorry.I send you tons of blessings and lots of prayers.
    Take care of yourselves. Quite frankly the news is HORRIBLE at sensationalize all weather especially hurricanes. I think they should all chose their adjectives more carefully.
