Has it been that long? I must say May is the most hectic month of the year (including the Christmas season!). For example, we had atleast one thing ending every week and I went camping three times. Two were for the GS and one was a church camp. But looking ahead, I have nothing on three days a week! I even stopped writing my book for that month. Speaking of my book, it is going to be veeerryyyy long. lol I'm not going to write anything else because I have a lot of entries to read. See you at your blog! lol

Today is Saturday, such a nice day... for tornadoes. There is currently a rain train of thunderstorms going through Georgia. The internet is on the fritz, and we have heard tornado sirens more times in a day than I ever have. It was thundering a lot (poor Harry) and hail the size of baseballs and grapefruit is expected in a couple counties. There is also maybe going to be tornado touchdowns. For us, it was raining reeeeaaallllyyyy hard and hail the size of (almost) golf balls were pounding the streets thirty minutes ago. This is supposed to come around again for some people. We went out after it passed, and the streets were full of flowing water, and the air smelled of pine trees. I could still hear thunder and the faint hum of the tornado sirens. Atlanta wasn't so lucky last night. It was thundering really loud for us (Only Divepup and me upstairs) and Harry was trying to climb into my lap. A tornado (130 mph, six mile path, 300 yd wide) went through downtown Atlanta, hitting the CNN building (passed there), the Georgia Dome, and the Phillips Arena (I've been there). It caused a lot of damage. I am just thankful Josh and Dad didn't go on a hike this morning. We have had bad weather all week. Tuesday had high winds in ______. It hit the park we go to every Tuesday and snapped more than 300 trees.
Approximately $15 million dollars worth of damage has been estimated. The playgrounds were destroyed. They say it will take weeks for some sections to reopen.

I know I haven't been posting that much, but I've been writing a book and listening to music... and watching this ventriloquist! He is amazing. He can do any voice perfectly, and it's really funny!

*groan* My legs hurt whenever I stand up. lol. You cookies! I mean it, one day those cookies are going to eat me instead of the other way around..... Ok, so Divepup's birthday is today! Happy Birthday Divepup! In special commemoration, here is one of the most delicious cakes I've ever had! Yummy! Chocohotopots 1 stick plus 1 tbs butter 4 ounces semisweet chocolate 2 eggs 3/4 cup sugar 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour Place a baking sheet in the oven and preheat it to 400 degrees F. Butter 4 ramekins with the tablespoon of butter. Melt the chocolate and stick of butter in the microwave or a double boiler, then set aside to cool a bit. In another bowl, mix the eggs with the sugar and the flour with a whisk and then beat in the chocolate mixture. Divide the batter between the four ramekins and bake for 20 minutes, by then the tops should be cracked and underneath it should be gooey. My mouth is watering just for thinking about them again! YUM! Happy Birthday again! =) karia105 |
