Well, as we speak, Hurricane Earl makes it's way toward us. Oh boy! I love a good hurricane if it doesn't do any damage! Actually, I prefer Nor'easter, but oh well! I am not picky! I warn people in case we lose our power and I get to read Bleak House and write letters by candlelight, and convince Daniel to take a walk in the middle of it around Friday or so! :D Well, perhaps we wouldn't walk in the middle of the worst of it, but perhaps in the eye of it! :) I love powerful weather! It reminds me of the Lord's might, and His power over all He has made! So while a hurricane behaves itself, I welcome a cosy night or two! Now, when you begin talking hurricanes like Katrina, and others that leave considerable death and destruction in their wake, I waive my compliments of the magnificence of an ordinary hurricane! :)
Now, I would ask for prayer in a certain area- if the hurricane is bad enough and comes over the Outer Banks, our friends the Travers, with their 11 kids, (13 and down) will be staying in our home as a storm shelter. So we could use prayer that our power won't go out, because 24 people living off of one generator would be quite something! Not impossible, but not quite comfortable! either!:)
We went with the Walkers and some of the T. family to see Toy Story 3 today! It was very good, and my favorite of the trilogy. (I did not like 1 or 2 of that series! :) And I do admit, it made me cry. Because I thought up how sad they could make the ending and my own fancies brought the tears! :D Oh well. At least I haven't a heart of stone! ;)
So this was just a little post to let you know about the amazing show of God's power I hope to witness soonish, and about the rare movie-going trip we took as a family this afternoon :D
p.s. The picture is just some hurricane, not our's! :D
