I remember this song when I was younger. I thought of all of you in the midst of the storm:

When you walk through a storm
Hold your head up high
And don't be afraid of the dark

At the end of the storm
Is a golden sky
And the sweet silver song of the lark

Walk on through the wind
Walk on through the rain
Though your dreams be tossed and blown

Walk on walk on with hope in your heart
And you'll never walk alone
You'll never walk alone

When you walk through a storm
Hold your head up high
And don't be afraid of the dark

At the end of the storm
Is a golden sky
And the sweet silver song of the lark

Walk on through the wind
Walk on through the rain
Though your dreams be tossed and blown

Walk on walk on with hope in your heart
And you'll never walk alone
You'll never walk

You'll never walk
You'll never walk alone.

Morning, everybody! Did anyone see that Mac Truck? Because I think one ran me over....

Today is going to be an easy, restful day. No running around for me. The only thing I'm going to do is pick up the house for a few minutes because it needs it! I will be around...see yall later!

nope, missed that one, but hope you feel better soon!
 
We both got word from our offices to use our own discretion as to whether we feel safe going in tomorrow. We'll see what it looks like in the morning. I wouldn't want to go in and get stranded by downed trees or something ... And I wouldn't want Mr. to go in and be stranded if the trains stop running ...

Hello, everyone, and a happy Reformation Sunday to you (Reformation day will actually be October 31). It's been windy here all morning, but no worse than with a usual thunderstorm. I understand that Sandy is over North Carolina right now, and should be here by Monday night. That means I have some more time to fill up more water bottles, just in case.

ok, I have heard of this a couple of times, what exactly do you do on this day?
We are having a lot of wind too, the tail end of hurricane sandy is supposed to arrive starting tomorrow night.

I have been really keeping an eye on this storm all week and last night I decided to play it safe.I spent the day yesterday prepping my grandfathers house, got the generator all set up and ready to go at his house, put stuff away, covered up his woodpiles with tarps, caulked and sealed his roof/ house and I installed a new electrical transfer switch/ central station at his house, so that it's just a snap for the generator to take over in case his power fails.

After that, I got home to my house yesterday evening and then got my house ready for this storm, I took down all my Halloween decorations that I put up last week, brought in all my deck furniture, got a spare propane tank for the grill, test fired the generator, filled up all the vehicles with gas and cut the lawn; Wheewwww.... I figure it's better to be prepaired, safe, then be sorry....

Now I'm at work, getting my hours in, just in case I cannot make it in Monday or Tuesday....

The Christmas open house tonight was very nice!!! I bought a snowman ornament for my friend that says "Happiness is wintery days, cherished friends, and sweet memories" - it's really cute! :) And I bought a few sparkly garland type ornaments that can be used to fill in bare spots in your tree. I had some already, now I have more! :grin: Christmas music was playing in the store...people everywhere. It was just fun! Oh, and I bought a candle called "First Snow" - it's By Sidney Candle Company. I have it burning now. It smells awesomely Christmassy!!! If my favorite show "revenge" wasn't on right now, I would be watching something Christmas!!
