No quote tonight, but first all is well and I'm fine from all the storms.

Today's been a little rough. It's a lot

For example my grandmother got back from the doctor today (Mom's side for people that keep up) and she has Lumbar spine ( Read more... )

Power out, tornado sirens going off, and according to my iPhone perhaps a couple of tornadoes about eight miles away (Let alone the flash flooding in Conway and warnings for the whole county).

This was my day so far...

World: How is it going?
Me: Oh...you. I see you have some bags there.
