New Things to Say

You know, I think about blogging everyday. I've even attempted to keep a physical journal and when it comes time to write my wandering mind down, I can't think of a word to say. So tonight I just thought I would write.........................anything!

So..........random thoughts...............What about that Hurricane that blew through town....Okay, i totally missed the whole thing. I was at work, one of my part-timers............I heard a little bit of wind blowing. The lights flickered a lot....Customers came in telling me that lights were out from Sawmill road all the way to Cemetery road. People were buying out our candles because we don't sell flashlights.................Hmmmm, I still didn't know how bad it was.......I leave work, around 7:30ish. It was a little windy, but no big deal. I hear on the radio how trees were being pulled up out of the ground by the wind. I prayed all the way home that my two littlest trees were okay...........A crab apple tree and a pear (ornamental) tree. I get home. All was okay, even my little teeny tiny oak tree that I'm growing from seed. I was happy, then I look at my yard. Shingles everywhere. I don't know why it shocked me so much. I guess if I had actually seen the storm it wouldn't have phased me a bit.............I'm just glad that everyone that I care about came through it okay. I did pray for the families that lost loved ones from falling trees. That is just so sad, it doesn't seem like something like that could even happen.....

I'm hoping to do better with posting. I just need to write down some of the craziest thoughts I have! Hey, What about those Buckeyes!
