We're here in St. Pete
Waiting for Fay.
And thanks to her
We'll miss our first day!
Yep. That's right. No first day of work for us! Work has been cancelled. So sad for us. :)
Have any of you ever been through a hurricane before? We went grocery shopping today for gallons of water & canned foods... we've been told where to go if we need to evacuate... we bought a battery-operated radio... and we have 6 lbs of peanut butter. (Ok... we didn't buy the peanut butter. Someone donated it to our house, but we can live off of peanut butter sandwiches for a few weeks or until we run out of bread I guess.)
Anyways... I hope you all enjoy your first days of work! Think of us while we're sitting at home with Fay. Miss you all mucho! I would love to hear about everyone's houses/parishes!

I remember hurricanes! Some of my friends went to the beach one time before the storm hit and said the waves were amazing...just don't do it too close to the storm. Even if you do get hit by the main part of the storm, most cities have everything up and running fairly quickly - it's mostly the poor surrounding areas that struggle for a while after the storm. Enjoy storm watching and be safe!
Hmm...which one of you was it that said that they didn't need to worry about hurricanes because they didn't hit St. Pete's? Oh wait, that was all of you ;-).
Seriously, hope you stay safe. I think that if you smear the peanut butter on your doorposts, the hurricane is supposed to pass by your house. Or is that another story with lamb's blood and an plague? I always forget.
