We're OK

The recent storms and tornados that hit Alabama last week only took our electricity away.  We were very lucky.  The F5 passed to our south.   Please keep praying for the victims of these storms.  They are I'm sure having a hard time dealing with everyday life now.  How do I know this?  Because in 1996 we lost our house in a flood.  It was just swept away.  We only had our vehicles and the clothes on our backs.  We were really humbled by the outpouring of love and support from our friends and family during that time.  You really find out who are your true friends, too.  The folks who lost everything during the tornados are just realizing that the only thing that they will really miss are the things that cannot be replaced, people that are gone, animals and pets that are too and pictures that cant be replaced.  The "things and stuff" that you had arent really all that important.  Things dont make you who you are either. 

We just got our electric back yesterday so this is the first time I was able to get on blogger to post.  Hope everything is wonderful for all my followers out there in blogland ;)  I really appreciate you!

Talk to ya later!
