Another update...
Aug. 28th, 2005 11:02 pmMy brother called from California, and seemed surprised I was still here. The DH called from the hospital to check on me.
Outside it has quietened down just a tad, though it's still raining off and on. I shut off the breakers for power to the shed and the front porch, and turned the fridge a couple of notches colder. I'm probably going to put on a pair of shorts, and lay down on the bed in a little while with the dogs. Marigold's mom has already gone to bed. I just hate to sign off on the computer when I don't know when I'll have a chance to get back on it, LOL!
I turned off the TV. I've been listening to the weather reports ever since 6AM, and I'm sick of it. They are predicting landfall at about 7AM, so it's possible I may have power at least that long.
If the damage is not too bad, but we have no power tomorrow, I may take a notebook to work on some fics.
