Well, I just got my first Tornado scare……
The siren went off, then the radio did it’s Emergency Broadcast sound, but this time it wasn’t a test. We were being told to take shelter.
I scrambled to grab my laptops because the information contained within are crucial for my company and my personal finances. Fortunately, my home office is right next to the bathroom that serves as our storm shelter.
I went to go try to grab the dogs which I knew would be a challenge when the warning was lifted. The tornado had already touched down…..15 minutes down the road from where I was.
I called Nancy at the hospital to let her know I was alright to find out that the hospital had already called a “Code Black” and she didn’t know why. I told her that a tornado touched down on a highway and took some cars out.
She’s in for a long, long night in the ER and hopefully I don’t have to do this hokey pokey again and try to get my butt into the bathroom/storm shelter

After two days of severe storms, spawning tornadoes and garage flooding, things are fine now.
