You guys can watch me live flying through the air - stay tuned!
You'll be fine. Just remember to pick up your feet.
Also
If you'd put some red cellophane over your flashlight so we know when to wave we'd much appreciate it. .
Hahaha Dale they made me belly laugh lol. Really Jennifer-Quit-05-01-14 hope you are safe. That is cool site Mr. Dale.
I am with ya Jennifer-Quit-05-01-14 I like running the other way too. I hope you all stay safe tonight.
Jennifer - praying for your safety my friend....watch out for scarecrows, tin men and lions.......and Toto too!
LIONS AND TIGER AND BEARS----oh my!!!!!
All safe here - no free entertainment from me tonight - at least not so far. lol I used to really stress over bad weather - OMG I would gather up little things that were important to me - cigarettes, lighter, phone, keys, cash - you know all the things I would need if I no longer had a home. Well I no longer get in my safe place clutching my cigarettes - kind of kidding here but not totally. Thanks for the concern.
BTW - Found out that my cat is scared of storms - she hid bless her heart. She has been such a blessing to me.
Jennifer-Quit-05-01-14 I got up really early (for ME anyways) and they were showing storms in Arkansas from last night. I have never been through a tornado but I am pretty sure I would be terrified. I have one cat who hides under the bed during storms, the others seem oblivious. I am so glad that your cat has been a blessing to you. Everyone knows how I feel about cats...I feel the same way about ALL animals and I am sure they are terrified when storms come and they are unprotected.
I had to laugh about you getting into your safe place with your cigarettes...I remember years ago hearing about someone who stepped outside of a shelter in Florida to smoke a cigarette during a hurricane and he was killed, I believe by flying debris. I never smoked inside so that would probably have been me. We are expecting some impressive storms tomorrow, lots of rain and thunder and lightning with high winds. Not my favorite since there are still quite a few trees around our house. I am also rather fond of my roof.
DO stay safe and keep us posted. I'll bet you are looking forward to that cruise more every day!
Love,
Ellen
Glad You're Safe.
I Fell Asleep Looking For The Red Cellophane.
I am happy Jennifer that it was just a scare; and cats being afraid of storm, I have that too, and have been peed on twice, because of the storm, once on my lap, the second on my pillow, as she was curled around my head during the storm
They're Out Already Today

The picture below shows layers. See how the bottom layer is moving left and the next layer is moving right?
The bottom layer is feeding that next layer it's energy. The warmer and moister the air, the more powerful the storm layer.
I saw a video earlier on FB that was of the tornado that hit Mountainburg Arkansas yesterday. It was really impressive - and scary.
I was going to ask if you were close to Mountainburg. I saw it on the news.
Not close to me but I think that Lois (arky) lives in that area.
this person wasn't thrilled.
not a storm chaser.
Hope she’s okay.
WOW! That is really crazy...they are SO CLOSE!
I've been in tornadoes and they are not FUN! 1 in Alabama as a kid and 2 in ND as an adult......
June 3 1999 our place was in the eye of the tornado. Tore 1/2 of our 2nd. generation place down.
Our kids were already gone and out of college. We can never make the place what it once was...
It would take several lifetimes. To this day, it still depresses me to look at the destruction.

PRAIRIEROSELADY I went to the store yesterday and an alert went off on my phone saying that there was a tornado warning...I thought oh great, I really have always been intrigued by tornadoes, certainly because of the Wizard of Oz...but I did not want to become a Storm ChasEE. I kept watching the sky as I drove...looks like areas about 30 miles from us suffered serious damage. There is a full sized trampoline wrapped around a tree, some houses lost their roofs, most of the area has no power. I would NOT have done well if it had been our house. Mike stayed home with the cats and said he heard a big noise but it turned out to be two wind chimes falling along with the post they were attached to. I don't think there was any damage done to them.
I am really glad that you are okay Jennifer-Quit-05-01-14!
Love,
Ellen
I have never been hit by a tornado but it has been close. Sorry about the damage to your place in 1999 but thankful that your family was safe.
