Just checking in...

        It sure is quiet around here.  I find myself talking to the cat (its better than talking to myself, I guess!).  Paul flew to Texas a few days ago, and it wasn't the most pleasant day for him.  In fact he was pretty exhausted by the time he got to  El Paso.  His original flight was supposed to leave Indianapolis at 2:40 pm, but we got a phone call from American Airlines, saying it was canceled due to bad storms along the flight path.
         On our way to Indy, we stopped to test drive an F450, which is one of the trucks we are considering buying to pull our "new" home (no decision yet). Our daughter Jess came with us to Indy because she and I were going to do some wedding errands after we dropped Paul off at the airport.  Well, lucky Paul got to do all the wedding shopping with us since he didn't have to be at the airport until 4:15. We registered for tuxes for the groomsmen, checked out the new bridesmaid colors  and  started buying the supplies to make the centerpieces for the tables.
After multiple delays, Paul finally got to El Paso at 11:30 pm, which is 1:30 am EDT.  A long day for him.
   I am tired too, but its because it's hard to sleep at night when there are tornado watches and warnings. Its so spooky to see all the killer tornados there have been.  I feel so badly for the people who have been affected.  Tornados are particularly scary when you live in a trailer.  It's one of the few times that I don't like that my home has wheels, and therefore, nothing anchoring it to the ground.  Last night I had the weather radio on all night, and kept the TV on the weather station, with the sound off.  I had a bag packed and the cat's carrier by the door.  We were under a Warning briefly, but I could see by the radar that the storm had actually passed our town by the time the warning came out.  I did wake up to an incredible wind at about 3 am, but thankfully it didn't last long. 
    After spending yesterday getting caught up on paperwork...well, not totally caught up, but at least I made some great inroads....today was spent doing errands all day.  I didn't buy much, but I was getting ideas for decorations and such for the reception.  Plus, I always seem to need food! I am not sure how I managed to fit more into this tiny little refrigerator, but I did.  I stopped by to see my daughter at work for a few minutes because that's a perk of being here!!  I love that I can see her on a regular basis, if only for a few minutes. 
      I am really hoping that the weather forecast for tomorrow is accurate, because I am looking forward to going for a long bike ride. It's supposed to be really nice out, although pretty windy.  At this point, I'll suffer through the wind.  I need to get outside for a bit!
