Another night of noisy storms...conducive to movie watching

So long as we don’t lose power, as we did yesterday while watching the movie Blindness circa 2008, fiction, it’s about when a virus or something is causing people in a city to go blind and was shown at the Cannes Film Festival that year, guess we will have to rent it in order to see the end, was a suspenseful flick. We got it for free on the CW or channel 46/6 here without having cable.

Friday night we did watch a rental one, Soul Surfer, very inspirational; true story of Bethany Hamilton who was a teen competitive surfer in Hawaii and lost her left arm in a shark attack.

Tonight, we did not lose power yet but the storms were so violent sounding that I shut our computer down a few times in utter fear!
Sure we have a surge protector, but I am still shell shocked from Hurricane Charley of ’04, so SORRY!

We seem to be having a major lull or the storm could have moved away I wanted to get this published as quickly as possible and so I did not take the time to check the radar again.

This weather can fool you since we do have a tendency to get what the pros call a training effect where one storm stops with another right behind with appearing calms for short spurts in between or not. Sometimes they are one after another with no stopping what-so-ever!

As I have said many a weekend that we do watch many films since we still belong to the home delivery rentals, but not all have been gems worth discussing or recommending, you all know the movie score with that concept, hmm?

People please hold on to your jewelry when you leave your sanctuaries, especially your gold, thieves have been snatching necklaces off of people’s necks! So watch your bling thing friends, if you have not been keeping up it’s the only thing that has been going consistently up, oh wait that’s right petrol or gas too, but at least with gas we haven’t had to pay $1800 an ounce, yet! That thought scares me, and I bet you too!


Moving on… when upset from the nasty weather spurts that happen way too often this time a year I get tense and my concentration diminishes to nearly nil.
Every little distraction makes me lose my train of thought; does anyone else have this difficulty?
Gosh, I feel bad Hubby was playing with Skipper with a toy and Skip was play growling and I yelled it was too loud! You see what I mean? Not good.
Now the news sounds too loud to me in the other room.
Oh well, almost done.

It’s my nerves since I just heard more thunder in the distance as if it was trying to make a comeback…

I wrote another email to our estranged son who appears to be in the path of our latest named storm which could be a hurricane by the time it reaches the east coast of Florida. And so I offered our home for an evacuation location for him and signed it love Mom and Dad, how else? So far no answer, and with his job they might need him to stay put, but I felt offering the olive branch might get a small response…

On that note of making myself more miserable allow me to be the first to wish you all a very happy good night and to ask you kindly to count your blessings and to share your overages and we will too!

And next time please be here or be square, ya hear?

Which way will the war go?
