This morning we woke up to severe weather warnings. It had already it Dallas and there were 625,000 people without power. Donny had to go to work and I had to take down anything hanging outside. The sky started getting really dark.

I kept watching the news to see when it was supposed to hit here.

When the tornado sirens started going off I made sure the kids were up and dressed, just in case. Luckily the worse part went south of us. Our house didn’t lose power, but homes and businesses on the loop and east of us did lose power for a few hours.

My poor 3 legged 12 year old cat is so afraid of storms. The night we had to spend the night on our roof during the flood, he fell off the roof and had to be rescued. Ever since then he needs to be held during a storm.

He is the sweetest kindest cat.

Speaking of sweet cats, Milo is getting more and more comfortable in the house. He’s still like a dog, scratching to come in and out though. Last night he got on the bed where Bailey was. She is not a friendly cat at all, but they seemed to do okay. Progress.

See why we need that little quilt on our bed?

With the day starting off so dark and scary, it sure did turn into a beautiful one.

And my daughter, who lives in Dallas, just texted me that they got their power back on. I pray everyone that still doesn’t have their electricity gets it back on soon.
