My friend Leann and her family are under a tornado warning even as I type this. We're under a watch down here, but the worst of it is yet to come. I'm all ready for it -- as ready as you can be for something like that.
I spent some time this afternoon putting a lot of my food back into the deep freeze and adding several two liter bottles of water on top of it all, just in case the power goes out. One of them, I added a good bit of salt to, so it'll stay frozen longer, I hope.
I also put my fire pit into the shed, and picked up anything laying around the yard that could be turned into a wind driven missile. It blows my mind how many people don't take these storm warnings seriously. I guess growing up on the Gulf Coast with a weather geek dad has storm prep ingrained into me too deeply to ignore. Of course, down there it was hurricane prep, but prep is prep.
Now, I'm sitting here waiting, and watching Ryan on the TV, Reed on the computer, and Max Velocity on the Kindle.
Truth is, this is all the space I'd need if I could convince Cody to come help me get rid of all of my junk. I'd need a small shed or attic for my Christmas and Fall decorations, but other than that, I basically live in two rooms -- the living room and kitchen-- plus a bedroom and bathroom. If I put it in Cody and Brennan's back yard, I won't even need a guess room, so that second bedroom can be turned into my craft room.
Not that I'm going to use that feature a lot, but it's still pretty nifty. Kindly ignore all of the packing material still on my couch. I took that out this morning.
Except that right now I'm using my laptop to blog. I still have the tab open and I can hear Reed in the background.
In other news, more house plans have been popping up in my FB feed, and I found this one that I like.

Speaking of, I was hoping to have a finished hat to show you this evening, but I've spent most of the day knitting into the void. I'm just hoping the void spits my knitting back out soon, so I can get this thing done.
And finally, I meant to put this into yesterday's post, but completely forgot until I got up this morning and found the photo still on my phone. I was going to show you that my Adirondack chairs fold up!

OK, the tornado warning has been downgraded. I need to go check on Leann now. And knit some more -- hopefully not into the void.
Laters.
P.S. I'll be checking in regularly on FB, Threads, and X so you will know I'm safe.
