Hi ladies!:smile:
I hope you and your families are far from the monster.
That Florence seems to be a very dangerous hurricane.:panic:

I am smack dab in the Middle of the country. All good here.
Youngest D in New Orleans. All fine last week with Gordon.
Florence is gonna be a biggie. Hopefully most people have evacuated.
Many of the local pet shelters have sent folks to the coast to rescue all the pets they can.
Lots of local EMT workers and firefighters are on their way also.
Thoughts and prayers to all those folks.

Thanks.:hugs:
No Florence here. Rain, though.

Never quite sure why people choose to live in hurricane-prone areas--then complain about them.
Or do nothing to prepare.
I feel bad for the animals/pets--not their fault & suffer.

Grew up with island typhoons.
You didn't build mansions on hillsides & stuff them with spendy swag.
You built storm rooms, with no windows & bins of drinking water.
Because typhoons were inevitable.
And no one but fruit bats & spiders heard complaints anyway.:lol:

@Murphy47 glad dd, in NO, outside Florence zone:tup:

Let's hope Florence will lose a lot of its strength during the night.
One million people have been evacuated but lots have decided to stay at their own risk, a governor said....:panic:
 
Helloooooo!
I am all in for the cocktails.
Boss turned 60 and guess who were the lucky ones organising the party today. :P
My coworker and I.
Well, everything that could go wrong did go wrong.
Including: caterer sending not enough food. Because mixed up orders.
Now, I fear my photos of the food are not good enough for complaining. Argh! :panic::panic::panic:
If you never hear from me again - I got killed by angry coworker. :hrmm:

As long as there was enough booze I’m sure it went ok.
Sic bag ninjas in angry coworkers. Problem solved.
