Don’t need to be a weatherman

Lots of things will be closed tomorrow, including my office and most likely the girls’ preschool. Oddly enough, Olivia’s dentist appointment is still on the schedule. Check tomorrow and call if you don’t want to drive, they said. Okey dokey.

Loose stuff is all in the garage or otherwise tied down – recycling bin, kids’ toys, yard art, etc. We’ll be taking down the porch swing and bungee-ing it to the balusters. I just helped a neighbor with a new baby and a husband out on a platform in the Gulf do the same at their house. She and the baby may be hanging out with us tomorrow. Husband is far enough out on the Gulf to not be in Edouard’s path, but nobody’s flying till it’s past them.

I see via the KHOU news crawl that Harris County has canceled its celebration of National Night Out tomorrow. Good thing Houston had already rescheduled its observance till October.

I figure if we lose power tomorrow, we’ll be playing several thousand rounds of Don’t Break The Ice, Candy Land, and Memory. That’s what they’re for, after all.

What are your plans for tomorrow? Leave a comment while you still can.

    If the power is on, do some work, and some household organization chores.

    If the power is off, finally finish reading “House of Leaves” and sweat a lot, and take lots of naps.

  2. Kuff, not real sure. During these things we are on a grid that loses power right away, and we are the last to get it back. Have generator, will use it. If I was a bettin’ woman, I’d bet I will be w/o power, no blogging here. Hubby is flying off to Utah and leaving me with it, the rat! It’s gonna get h-o-t hot! Was in L.A. and there was an earthquake while I was out there, didn’t feel it, was walking along the beach, now, this. Looks like I bring major disasters with me, where ever I go.

    If not bad, heading to Austin for clients; if bad, staying home and catching up with offline reading.

    Like your dentist, no change in routine unless a last minute event calls out a halt. Since when did a tropical storm follow a forecast path?

    When I saw the start of this entry, the thought entered my mind of where you were, and I seemed to remember that you’re one of the bloggers from the Lone Star State.

    Are you in the Houston area?

    Texas is a state that I’ve never visited… That might be nice.

    Is there enough time for an AC Moore run for glitter and feathers and watercolors?
