Stormy Weather

Wow.  The force of nature.  I have never seen weather this bad.  M was about to BBQ some pork chops and he made a bee-line for the patio door.  It literally became a deluge in a matter of seconds.  We watched helplessly as our trees bent into near submission.   The sky is now an eerie yellow and I'm not convinced that we are out of the woods yet.   CP24 is saying we have another hour of tornado watch.  Lit a bunch of candles when the power went out and in a weird way, it's kind of nice when all the electric "buzz" is quieted.  Power's back,  but one candle is still lit, just in case.  

Marika was waiting to be picked up by The Boyfriend .... family dinner before The Boyfriend leaves for university tomorrow.  He has two weeks of football training before school starts.  For a while, it didn't look like they were going anywhere, the the storm has subsided a bit, so they are on their way to teppanyaki.  Lord, don't let anything get in the way of teppanyaki.........

So, no BBQ tonight, but thank God for good, old George Foreman and his handy dandy grill.
