It's back to school for me and many new beginnings so to celebrate..here's my brand new blog! I'll keep this one updated more often and be able to share lots of recent pictures and cool websites that I run across during times of distraction. Come back soon...there'll be something new waiting!

Hurricane update


Well, I can't sleep due to good ole Wilma so I thought I'd give a little update.....I don't know what it is about hurricanes-seems like it's very motivating for me to update~I got my site updated too....guess the whole hunkering down in the house thing!
So anyways..I was so happy to get up on here and see tags on my tagboard....like I said over there (but ran out of characters!) I don't know who that Chinesomething...person is..I think it's a robot or spam or something..Sometimes I get that here on the comments section of my blog but I can delete those...Can't delete the tags..so please just ignore that weirdness!
Sooo here we are waiting out Wilma...It's not raining yet but it's really windy--already up to 40 mph which is quite windy here beings as they get all in a hizzy if it's 10mph...but nothing else is really happening HERE yet. In the Keys it looks pretty bad---however, it is fairly amusing to watch the weather people blow around..there's one crazy fellow in particular that apparently want so stand out in the crowd..He's down on the ground right now playing in the water to "show us how fast it's flowing!"......the other crew just asked if it was from the sewers!?!? Craziness..I think they are becoming a little loopy too!
So Wilma is supposed to be the worst here since Andrew...It's supposed to come through morning-2pm tomorrow...So just more time to wait....we are quite the prepared ones this time though! I got more groceries last night and Adam went for a lil water run today--oh yeah and Pepsi-the other essential. We moved the pots from the front porch-surprisingly my plants are still alive although they've kind of regressed into a wild/viny hibrid..but I still think they are pretty. Then Adam moved in everything from the back porch...we've been doing all the laundry and dishes too incase the electricity goes out....and there's TONS of ice in bags in the freezer with the coolers ready...Oh and I cleaned the house too-I have this obsession that if the lights go out I'm extremely irritated rolling over things or not being able to find things..SO I took care of that--such joys of having an extra weekend day-even if I do have to survive a minor natural disaster!
Well-the lights are a little jumpy and I must protect my dearly beloved computer so I'm off to watch my own Felicity marathon (season 1 on DVD!)....I'll update more tomorrow. Thanks for thinking of me and I'm sure we'll be fine:-)
Love,
Kara
