I love this state, but I hate the darn storms. Living in a mobile home means I have to leave and get somewhere safe. Had we known how bad the storms can get here we would have gotten a regular home. It's ONLY the storms that make it that way, and If they did a few things these places would be fine.Mine has gone through three bad hurricanes and one tornado. Now I just pray it outlasts me.


Tomorrow all the hurricane shutters will be in place. The suitcases are packed with papers and stuff, and I have a safe house to go to instead of the shelter. I'm a lucky lady.I've put away the lawn funiture and tables. Most of that I had planned to do next week as I was leaving. Now it's done early.


I'm looking around and trying to think what I want to take North. I'm sending a lot of my movies up that way since here I've so much to do here I don't need them. Then there are odds and ends that "do I need it here-- or there?"Most of the stuff you need in a home I was lucky enough to be able to get at the thrift. Actually I just bought a TV for my bedroom here at Goodwill. I didn't want to spend $200 on a new set for the bedroom and because of the change you can't get anything cheap. SOOOOO-- I picked up this little old set for $14 and it works great. I have cable so the change won't affect it.


Well, life goes on. I intend to enjoy-- martha
