Thunderstorms and More

I promise I have oogles and oogles of pictures to post as soon as I get my laptop fixed, in the meantime I will continue to take pictures and mentally write blog posts.

Living in tornado alley for the bulk of my life (minus my four year stint in Wyoming). I grew up with tornadoes, and hail, and straight line winds you would think 22 years later I would be used to all of this...wrong!

I hate thunder or lightning, I run for cover when the sirens start blaring. Unlike some of the other yahoos in my family (namely my Dad and Brother) who stand on the porch and watch...dummies. All the while I am in the basement with a blanket over my head kissing my life goodbye.

I am a sissy.

Now to add to my hate of thunderstorms. No more believing my Mom when she tells me "oh that's far away from here, don't worry" (why I trusted the lady who can't read a map to save her life is beyond me).

I am all alone here. No one to hole my hand or tell me "its far away."

I bring this all up because tonight is supposed to be the first big storm. Needless to say I won't sleep a wink tonight, and you better believe I will have the TV on all night...just in case.

If ya'll are lucky I might take some pictures...from inside. I won't be the yahoo on the deck. Not even for the sake of my blog.
