I thought about you and wondered how close you were to the storms. We have sure had them this year. We have been lucky, they have been all around us. We have just had the hail, rain, and wind. The funnel cloud was there today, but it didn't come down. Take care and I am glad you got your new roof.

I'm so relieved to know that you're alright. We had a scare here the night before last (I'm in Indiana). The tornado sirens went off...and from our neighborhood (which sits on a hill a bit north of town) we could see the dark clouds sitting right over the top of downtown. Thankfully, no damage aside from a few downed limbs...but there were a couple of small funnels sighted south of us. <br /><br />We will certainly pray for the good folks in Oklahoma...as well as the people of Joplin, Missouri.<br /><br />KathyKatyDidStitcheshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10924565488913959754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1934579070684149103.post-73128193844890240472011-05-25T04:44:58.186-05:002011-05-25T04:44:58.186-05:00SO glad to know you and your family are fine.

When I saw the photos on TV last evening, I was very concerned for you. <br /><br />It has been a devastating tornado season this year; rather like the hurricane season of a few years ago. I pray it is now over and that relative calm settles in.<br /><br />By the way, I am leaving early tomorrow morning for a trip to Florida...but I am terrified of flying. If you think of me, please pray for me.<br /><br />Love,<br />PattiPatti https://www.blogger.com/profile/12931836399684850729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1934579070684149103.post-32281965906127421712011-05-25T02:05:32.996-05:002011-05-25T02:05:32.996-05:00I'm so thankful to read this post, I've be...I'm so thankful to read this post, I've been thinking and praying for you.<br />This year's weather is so scary.
