This post could also aptly be titled, Oy Fay!
The 2008 Hurricane season is rearing it's ugly head with Fay. Florida is under a hurricane watch and we are stocked up, with generator at the ready, the hatches are battened and everything is packed away from the garden. Now we get to play the waiting game. It isn't a strong storm but it is big and it is wet. Not much to do but wait and see.
Lily's first day of school has been cancelled and she is sad about it. Heading into first grade is a big deal and she cannot wait. I also think it has something to do with all the new stuff that she has and is ready to strut her stuff with. This year she decided that backpacks were soooo kindergarten (her words) and she chose a messenger bag. She can't wait to see if anyone else had the same idea as her and she is really hoping to be different.
Wait, wait, wait.......wait some more. Oy Vey, I mean Fay.
It is now almost 24 hours later and we still don't know if we are a target for Fay or not. The weather gradually deteriorated after midnight and now we have lashing rain but that's all. I don't think it will change now until tomorrow. Flooding will be the big problem and their isn't much that we can do about. Since I am always one to see the brightside of things: it sure is fun dashing through the puddles in my new car!!!!!
