Hurricane blogging

Between work and stocking up for the hurricane/tropical storm that’s going to hit Richmond, I have no time to do anything else today.

I have four gallon bottles of water, filled every water container I own, have been adding ice to the freezer as it gets made, and will fill the bathtub later today. I have batteries, plenty of food, a grill that runs on propane, and I bought a book light from B&N yesterday. All I need to do is get some cash and snacks and I’m covered.

I lost power for three days during Isabel. Here’s hoping that is not repeated.

Saturday morning services have been cancelled. So much for my idea of borrowing free teenaged labor from Sarah and bringing him back tomorrow morning. I’m on my own.

Good luck to everyone in the path of the hurricane. I hope it weakens a lot before it makes landfall. Really, an earthquake and a hurricane in one week is a bit much, don’t you think?

    Be safe, Meryl! Here’s hoping Richmond misses the worst of it.

    As things stand now, Eli and the Missus d’Eli, along with The Other Elisson, are right in the gunsights – they live on the south shore of Long Island. Oy.

  2. Oy is right. I hope they’re safe!

    The good news is, the hurricane is weakening.
