:-( What a great welcome to Florida I am receiving! It looks like tropical storm Bonnie will miss us but Charley is being closely monitored. Right now we have tornado watches going on! I have never seen such weather extremes!
 
Done! If you get a chance look up Psalm 46(the Bible)...I have clung to this passage many times! I went to school in Florida my freshman year of college and was so terrified by all the rain. Everyone around us had to evacuate and I was attending classes in knee high puddles! It all came to an end right as our school was preparing to evacuate....I had NEVER seen so much rain in my life! But when the sun shines...and it will shine again....it is bliss! I had a great tan too! The only tan I've ever had in my life...tee hee! Hang in there!

My goodness! Did you just move there? I have no experience with hurricanes, but when I hear tornado, I head for the basement with my radio and my cookies. You need comfort at a time like this..lol

And a sense of humor. .

Stay safe.

Lesliemarie,

Try not to get too worried. Usually the media makes a bigger deal out of the hurricanes than is necessary and that makes people get all worked up. I've lived in Central FLorida for 30 years and it's always crazy like this. I know you live closer to the water but take it in stride as much as you can. Just make sure you have all the essentials like candles and matches and plenty of water and non perishables.

Hopefully, it won't be that bad of an experience for you. I have seen the most amazingly beautiful rainbows after a hurricane.
 
Lisa we're with you in spirit and prayer!! Hang in there! It's not unusual for hurricanes to spawn tornadoes when they come onto land. Just keep your eye to the sky and your radio on, and have all the essentials ready like others suggested. I'm far away in Ohio, but watching them closely because I have friends in Florida, and I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers too!!

P.S. to Candi - intensitylisa's name is Lisa, not Lesliemarie. :)
 
Hello there! I am thinking about you and feeling your pain. Bonnie just passed us over a few hous ago and dumped a load of rain. They tell us Charley will visit next, after he gets away from you. Hang in there..." this too shall pass.." Hurricanes are pretty rotten creatures. We have learned that the hard way here in NC. Just like ya'll in Florida. We are praying for all in the path. Remember " the sun will come out tomorrow..." Pretty corny -yes - but true! :)
 
lisa,

i am from Louisiana and we went thru a hurricane a few years ago. I know how scarey weather can be. even more so since you just moved there. We lived thru it and i am sure you will be fine.. my thoughts and compassion are with u .. God bless u .. You'll be fine :+


take care,
Candy
 
Hello again. I hope you don't mind a little advice from someone who has been there and done that. You may have already done these things. 1. Fill your car up with gas this morning. 2. Make sure you have a flashlight and extra batteries. If you have any type of radio that can work off batteries, make sure you have some to fit it. 3. Put you some bottles of water and some juice in the freezer. That way if you lose power, you will have something cold to drink tomorrow. Also, stock up with non-perishable food. No stores will be open later if the power is out. 4. If you have a gas grill, make sure you have propane for it. 5. This will probably sound unimportant right now, but make sure you have plenty of clean undies. Now, hang in there. Let us know how you are. They say the eye of Charley will pass over where I am tomorrow. But that will be nothing compared to being where he comes ashore. Godspeed to you and Charley. May he pass you quickly and as gentle as possible.

Lisa, thinking of you and hoping everything is okay??? Both of my sisters live near the Orlando area and they both lost HUGE trees. Luckily, they all fell next to their homes and not on them. One is with electricity and the other without. I think I heard on the TV this AM that 18,000 are without electricity right now. Thinking of you all down there.

I've been watching the news Lisa...how are you doing? I know you have a lot to think about but let us know when you get the chance or have access to a computer! Hugs to you!

Hi Lisa,
You are in my thoughts & prayers, & in the prayers of all my prayer circle, along with my brother & his wife & two children who are right in the path. So scary.
Please let us know you are ok when you can.
Love,
Ruth
 
I'M O.K.!!!!!

:D Hi All! Boy were we lucky!! We live on the East coast and just got a little bit of rain and little wind! The clouds were real funky though swirling around! We did get a few tornadoes around but nothing major! Thanks for all your concerns and helping me get through this until the next round! Please pray for the unfortunate victims in Punta Gorda Fla though!
