Just waitin' for Frances???

Well, here we sit, house all boarded up and waiting for this thing called Frances. The weather (or is it whether) people are, as usual, clueless. But, bless 'em, they've been on the job for three days now, so probably not odorless. The next couple of days should be interesting, our daughter will be showing up with her 4 cats and my son and dil will be bringing their 3, one of which is the true cat from hell. Add that to our 3 resident cats and you get well, let your imagination fill in the blanks.
We did consider evacuating but then realized there wasn't anyplace to evacuate to and no gas to get us there. I95 was a long parking lot last night and the gas stations were mostly out-of-gas stations.
So here we sit, practicing bending over in case we need to kiss our asses goodby.

The very best of luck to you Bob. There are alot of us watching this very closely and hoping for the best.
Hang tight and keep your head down.
Lets hope Ivan does an Earl and veers south or does a Danielle and goes north. 3 hurricanes to Florida this season is just not acceptable.

Maybe not, but who do you appeal that one to?

Good luck, Kip.
A few suggestions: 1) Drink heavily. 2) Eff like rabbits. 3) Recover. 4) Repeat as(s) necessary.

Kip, I wish you and Judy all the best wishes I can muster babe. BarbG is in the same boat you are. She was going to head here to my place but with no gas and being at the tail end of the longest line, shes staying put. STAY SAFE!! Hope ya got the bar stocked! 
Love, Leesa

Bob and Judy, you're both in my thoughts and prayers. Sure wish these things would ease up on you guys over in Florida now.
Sad thing is when we over here in Louisiana miss em, we're glad. But then still sad to know they have to hit somewhere. Guess we all feel the same when it comes to that.
Watching the path and wishing you stay out of harm's way.
