Hurricane Irene is about to hit dirty ole Jersey in a few hours so I figured I would write my last post before the electricity goes out. I won't lie, I've been one of those worried freaks for three whole days straight! No, I don't think we're going to die & that it's the end of the world or anything [my sister thinks I'm already there lol] but I am worried about being flooded.
I have been preparing though. All the tubs & sinks are filled with water. The empty Poland Spring gallons are filled with tap water. I brought canned & dried foods. I made sure my sister made about two days worth of cooked pasta & rice. And I have not one but two flashlights on my bed in case one decides to die on me [couldn't find any D size batteries!!!]. Overall I think I'm more prepared than I ever will be.
So to all my East Coast family, friends, acquintances & readers, be safe & don't be stupid out there [just watched 3 guys 'swimming' in VA beach as the hurricane was approaching!].
xoxo.. Vee
