I went to visit my mother yesterday in the hospital. When I was leaving to go home, a nasty storm came up. I had to run to the car in my bare feet (so as not to bust my butt running) through the parking lot. I was soaked to the bone when I jumped in my car. I couldn't see to drive home & the roads were like a river. Twice, I tried to ease on my brakes & felt/heard a weird sound. Yep, no brakes as they're wet. I finally turned on my emergency flashers so the other cars could see me. I didn't want someone to run in to me. After the white-knuckle drive/float home, I was relieved to see dry land - or home. The girls were sitting on each side of Scott under covers scared of the lightning too. I understand. I saw the cloud-to-ground lightning strikes one right after the other as I was driving right in to the storm. I just prayed to get me home safe.

This morning, Scott got up & found that my coffee pot doesn't work. I have had a nice $50 coffee pot that I dearly loved! Now do NOT keep me from having my coffee first thing in the morning or you might find that a mean nasty bear has replaced the sweet Secret! Luckily, he had his coffee pot in the house boxed up with his stuff. Lucky for him, I got some coffee!

It'll be a short work week for me cuz we're closed Thursday & Friday. I'm looking forward to a 4-day weekend!

Anyhoo, hope everyone is having a Happy Monday!
