There's a storm a comin'!
 wrote this at 7:48 pm

While things may have looked bright & sunshiney this morning, do not be fooled!

It is not expected to stay that way for long.

Typhoon Kompasu is heading our way.

[cue the scary music]

As in it should be here tomorrow morning.

So after much internal debate, knashing of teeth & rending of clothes, I decided to take the screen house down.

By myself.

So out came the furntire, off came the light strands.

Down came the wind shield & bug screen.

I labored & sweat & toiled & huffed & puffed until I could huff & puff no more…

Ok, so it took all of 20 minutes to take the sucker apart – but it was hot outside!

Everything’s now safely tucked inside our shed & we get a lovely view of our pumpkin…and the empty patch.

I use the word ”our” strictly in the vernacular sense as we did not plant said pumpkin but rather laid claim to it as it has grown on our side of the fence.

And what a lovely pumpkin it shall be.

    This post made me laugh – very cute. And I love your pumpkin!

  2. Hey girl, just checking in with you. Hope the repercussions from the storm are minimal! It shouldn’t be anything a Texas girl can’t handle, right? After all, your from tornado territory! Let us know how it goes.

    Tell Cynthia that I now know why she isn’t on the internet. And, indeed you may not be able to see this message if service goes out until after the fact. Are you girls going to argue over the pumpkin?

    So what will become of that cute little pumpkin? Pie or bread or ???

So What Do You Think?
