Things you think about......

......When you are up in the night willing a storm to pass over your house and leave it unscathed:

• It's a good thing I did the floors yesterday because whoo boy, am I going to be tired later today!
• How can Char sleep through this, but can't sleep through any other night?
• I really need to wash my curtains (noted when sitting by the window makes you sneeze from the dust)
• I really should get Richard to take the kitchen curtains down in the morning and get started.
• I need to buy new curtains for our bedroom.
  
• I need to go to Value Village and drop off the junk that has been sitting in the front entranceway of the house for a week. (noted when pacing through the house and you see the pile)
  
• Even though the satellite images on the weather website say the storm has passed, why am I still up???
• How can Char sleep when her room sounds like a wind tunnel? (noted when I laid down beside her for a minute to make sure she was ok. She didn't budge.)
• Seriously. Why is she sleeping so well tonight but not any other night?
• Why did I let myself listen to the "live from Elie, Manitoba" broadcast on the radio yesterday? I was better off not knowing how bad it got there. (wanna see? check out the video someone took.)
• I am gonna have to phone mom tomorrow and let her know we are ok.
