Hurricane Irene

Beautiful, terrifying Hurricane Irene is currently barreling up the East Coast heading directly to my beloved home state, Dirty Jersey. It lingered off the coast of South Carolina for a bit, but being so far inland we didn't receive so much as a drop of rain here. Our drought like conditions continue and my plants are none too pleased with the fact that my bank account can't keep up with their desire for luxurious amounts of water. The bees don't seem to mind however, nor do the hummingbirds. Mother Nature has given me many a beautiful sign or gift these past weeks, but I'm not going to delve into that right now.

For now, I wanted to just say this: All of my fellow East Coasters are in my prayers and thoughts this weekend. To say I'm worried about all of my loved ones back home may be an understatement. One look at my chewed off and sore fingernails would give me dead away. That being said, stay safe everyone. Remember, it's better to be over prepared than under and I expect every single one of your to be here to continue in the mischief making with me once this storm has, like so many others, passed.

  1. I'm adding your prayers to mine and to a few candles, and hoping we won't have to miss anything irreplaceable.

  5. Ms. Irene could have been a much more unruly house guest. I'm thankful she didn't leave too much of a mess behind here. Hugs.. here's to you getting some rain!
