The Big Storm


A few years ago, my daug. and her family, came to visit. They live in Tenn., and had to drive five hours to get here. This was the year we had the big ice storm. Just as they were getting off the exit ramp, the hail started, and they found a place to pull under. The carport kept the new van from getting dents. As soon as the hail stopped they went to a motel and I met them there. It was still storming, and my Son in law is afraid of storms. He wasn't afraid of storms until he came back from Iraq, must be the sound of the thunder, reminding him of the bombs going off. He was so afraid that he made the kids get in the bathtub. I guess he though they would be safer in there. My daug. and myself, got a real kick out of the whole thing. I guess that you would've had to be there to get the whole picture. Anyway, we had a good time, something I'll always remember.

My Mom












I went down to my Mom's, to spent the weekend with her. She is getting hard of hearing, so everything has to be loud. Sat. night we went to bed, me in the front room, on a roll-a- way bed. My Mom sleeps with her T.V. on, and had it up as loud as she could. I tried to close her door, but she made me open it again. She said it got too cold in the room with the door closed. So here I am, trying to go to sleep, with a T.V. drumming in my ears. After about a hour of this, I'm used to sleeping in complete quiet, I got up to go to the restroom. I looked in her room and she was asleep, so I went in quietly and turned down the sound, I then went to the restroom When I came out, my Mom was sitting on the edge of the bed turning up the sound. So much for that! I laid back down to try to sleep, to no avail, it was just too loud. I got up again and looked in her room, she was sound asleep. I quietly went in her room again, this time I was going to make sure she didn't turn the sound back up. I took the battery out of the remote and turned it around so it wouldn't work. Ah! sleep at last, but something woke me up again, so I got up. My Mom was sitting on the edge of the bed flipping the channels by hand. She couldn't get the sound to go up, but she was making noise by changing the channels. She looked up at me and asked me if the T.V. was too loud. When I said yes, she informed me that I play the T.V. loud. I answered, but not when I'm trying to sleep Mom.
