What a few days!

   It is August 30th,2012. We, along the Gulf of Mexico have been sitting on pins and needles for the past 5 days.  Hurricane Isaac has kept us guessing.  It finally made landfall in Louisiana Wednesday evening at approximately 8 P:M. In fact it is the anniversary of Katrina, The hurricane that totally devastated LLouisiana a few years ago.  I was not living here in the south at that time, so I did not witness  the horrific travesty of that Hurricane. Though when I moved down here my  other half took me down to the Orange beach area and showed me some of the damage that still was not cleaned up and rebuilt. The white sand was picked up by the hurricane and moved up on shore and covered buildings across the highway and over a hundred feet from it. Buildings were still collapsed. Just seeing that little bit, I can't imagine the damage in New Orleans. Isaac has been  a slow moving storm, so it has lingered in places. Now it is easing up somewhat but is still very dangerous. At this stage, we here in Robertsdale Alabama are getting the outer bands from the storm, so a lot of rain at times and wind.We are watching for flooding and possible tornadoes. We are not out of harms way as of yet. It should be pretty good by Saturday.   So Howard , our dogs and I are fine here waiting for the storm to end.

   Having the computer is  great when we have bad weather, its good to be able to  talk with friends both far and near,  Tiberius, our grandson is now 20 months old, 4 more months and he will be 2 yrs old. He looks like he should be 3yrs instead.  He is the apple of y eye. We have a lot of fun together, he seems to think I am another child since I am only 4" 10"s tall and he is over 36 "s tall (smile)
      I guess that's about it for today , I hope all of you near and far all over the world are safe and well. be happy and blessed .Jodie from Alabama
