Hurricane Dorian is headed to touch down in my area on Monday or Tuesday. It's forecast to be worse than 2017's Hurricane Irma. Persons of faith, I'd appreciate your prayers that God will spare my home from destruction and damage, and that we'll make it through the aftermath okay. Others, I appreciate your thoughts and concern.

Will try to do a VLog for posting at The Xix Speaks.

God bless, and best wishes

Well, today there wasn't much of a Hurricane. Just some rain here and there. Turns out, the day after I made my initial post here, the hurricane changed course or something, and it's not even predicted to make landfall in Florida.

Thanks to all three people who took the time to look at this. Man, this place is dead.

I'm glad to hear you're okay. And by the way four of us saw this.

Make that 5!

Thanks, guys.

For one day there, it was very real. We were going to be hit by a hurricane worse than Irma. People were driving around everywhere, picking up supplies and getting ready for a sustained power outage. The gas station was filled with customers filling up their cars, and I also heard someone wanting to buy several containers' worth of gas (probably to power a generator). One store was out of bottled water and also out of bread.

I was scrambling to find whatever I could, to eat that doesn't require refrigeration or freezing. Called my mom and tried to get a few things for her.

It was real for a day. Then the next day everything changed. But that one day everyone was going nuts, stocking up, and bracing for the worst.
