Oh, I Just Came Back From the Windy City...

My lands, is it windy here today. And yesterday. The weatherpeople say they're have been gusts up to 45 mph the last couple of days. Are you sure? It feels like that number is too low. My house feels like it's going to just pick up and blow away. Or fall over in pieces and then blow away. We're not in the comfort of being nestled in next to the mountains to protect us anymore. Oh no, we are way out in the middle of things now, so we feel the brunt of the storms. Seriously, I'm afraid one of my kids will just blow away. And they wonder why we can't go to the park today. (Audrey said she'd be really careful to not get blown away, and if something flew towards her she'd duck so nothing would get in her eyes. Sorry, kid, but dust doesn't work that way). Sorry, kids, no park for a little while longer. As the great muppet bear would say, "Can't be too careful. Safety first." he he he. A favorite line of ours. 5 points goes to the person that can name the movie!

Wow, I ramble a lot. Sorry 'bout that.

You know Calamity Jane?? Last year we had wind gusts at 60mph and I thought we were going to be missing our car by the morning. I know exactly how you feel. Those are crazy days.
