Hi everyone!
I'm trying to get back to business. My studio still isn't in shape but I'm getting there a little every day.
As I look around at all the stuff I have, I wonder if it's really worth keeping everything to potentially lose it at some point.
Memorial Day weekend of 2024 brought a realization, that just because I don't live in 'tornado alley' doesn't mean this part of the country can't be affected. In fact, I question whether or not that alley is widening.
If you watch THIS video from Jordan Hall, you'll see just how close the tornado came to my house. In fact, at the 8:42 point you'll see the cyclone begin to hover over my house for several minutes before moving on, as if it were deciding whether or not to drop a tail and have some fun.
I know I can't live with the 'what if' necessarily, but I can do everything possible to be prepared - all of us can AND SHOULD.
In a couple of weeks, I'll be back to regular posts. I have an editorial calendar set up but I don't work well in chaos. I should have this mess reigned in in that length of time. I have to. My grandgirls will be visiting this summer and we need space to play with artsy stuff.
I'm also going to be talking Pantry, Menu Planning, Garden, Emergency Preparedness and back to my Fly Lady cleaning system so I hope you'll stay tuned.
In the mean time, check out THIS PAGE from the NWS Preparedness Week by state. Missouri is this week so I'll hope to have something to share on Friday as to what I've been working on.
Be safe, Be prepared, Be Blessed
