Apr. 11, 2008 - A Day Off
Well, without meaning to, I took the day off from school. I had some appointments and errands this morning, so Haley and I went to town together. By the time we got home it was after 1 o'clock. I just had laid Harmon down, thinking I would start straight off on our lessons for today when my sister, mom, and pretty much everyone started calling to tell me we were under a tornado watch. (We got rid of our TV's years ago) So, we went over the emergency plan together and made sure we all knew what to do. After maybe 10 minutes the watch was changed to a warning. I went to get Harmon out of his bed and we all went to the safest place in the house to wait it out, while listening to our local radio station. Thankfully, after about an hour or so the warning was lifted. Harmon wasn't excited about only getting a 20 minute nap 
We came out and waited for the watch to end...by the time it did my mom stopped by on her way home from work to check on us...after she left I had to start on supper and now here I am at the computer. So, no school today. I guess we'll have a make up day tomorrow. Life is good.

I am so glad everyone is ok. We did a little school today, but not what we needed to. When the storm warnings came through it kind of threw everything off a little,so I guess we will be doing a little make up tomorrow.

Eek! That sure made for an exciting day! I'm glad it didn't hit your area! THat's something I've never been through (not even a "watch").
Love, ALyssa
