: : : It sure looks like H. Frances is going to necessitate preempting the secret cultic rituals at Kat's house tomorrow. :-(
: : : Pray for Terry & Buddy. Terry got out of the hosiptal after an operation Thursday, and is painfully recuperating. Friday night Buddy got bit by a brown recluse on his paw and passed out. Terry had to carry him to the car (causing great pain for her) and drive drugged to the emergency vet. The vet gave Buddy a shot that got him conscious (epinephrine, I would guess), and then cut all the infected (venomized) tissue out of his paw. They think they got it all, but they need to see him every day for a couple weeks to be sure they didn't miss any and he is healing correctly.
: : It will be TS Frances by the time it gets to this coast...
: Very soon our little town will be hit with up to 35-40 mile per hour winds and 60 mile per hour gusts- there are already reports of mobile homes destroyed in Holiday.
: I hope you are all praying out there.
I woke up at my brothers with a tree in our pool area destroying the screen porch. keep them in your prayers as they se how much it will cost to fix.
keep me in prayer also as I venture back to work this afternoon.
