If ya’ll have been following over the past year, you might know what I am talking about.

This isn’t about stuttering, and I’m sorry I have been slacking on things….

Last night, I was thinking this “I was sitting around watching  TV, going outside, and waiting for Hurricane Gustav to come”, and yet I didn’t know what was going to happen that next day or well week I must say.  We have been through so many hurricanes in the past, this was maybe a lights out for a day kind of hurricane like we are used to.  NOT so much.

I remember watching TV, and I said “well I got to start making lunch before the power turns out”, and right after that.  Poof lights went out.  Well, we watched the hurricane outside Mason’s window.  Granted remember I was 9 months pregnant at the time, hubby out of job, and no reliable car.  We waited at a few hours to see if the power comes back on.  Well, no go.  We listened to our little radio we got two days before.  We heard about the devastation around the town.  We also heard about a grocery store that charged 21.00 bucks for a 6 pk of coke and 2 candy bars.

We waited a few more days til the power came on.  nope, nope, nope.  But 6 days later, we got power.  :D  We learned to talk to each other, and spend the last week of just mason with just her.  That was so nice.  No other distractions but paying attention to her.

So this was a blessing in disguise.  I have more, but my kids are driving me bonkers!!!!
