Okay - the weather is weird. We are in the week of Veteran's Day and all of a sudden we have a hurricane? Did I hear that right I thought as it was announced on TV. It is cool and breezy with a chance of a hurricane? I don't believe ever in my life have I awaited a pending hurricane wearing long pants. Long pants and hurricanes in the South don't go together. Shorts, sweaty T-shirts, flip-flops and cold showers go with hurricanes. But, here we are sleeping in fall pajamas under light blankets with the ceiling fan FINALLY getting a well-earned rest and we are watching the Weather Channel tracking the pending hurricane. CRAZY!
Thankfully the cool weather basically choked Hurricane Ida into a mild but wet tropical storm and here we sit with the kids getting not one but two hurricane days off from school - CRAZY. Two days off for a tropical storm. We've had summer thunderstorms as bad as this storm for goodness sakes.
Veteran's Day is tomorrow and, hopefully, more celebrations will not be cancelled for a lousy thunderstorm. The veterans have endured much worse to defend us and I'm sure we can stand outside in some rain to honor them. Don't you think?
Have a blessed day and keep a song in your heart!
