Unwelcome Visitors

The next update should be out at 11 am, but ... YIKES. Helene is looking pretty nasty now that she's getting more organized. Hopefully the storm moves quickly and doesn't just sit in the Gulf picking up strength. On our side of the state, we should be dealing with the equivalent of a category 1 or 2 - still nothing to trifle with, but not that bad. We've got gas for the generator, food, and I'll be spending the rest of the day just doing small tasks that will have us ready for whenever the winds pick up tomorrow. If everything continues as expected, by around 2 in the afternoon, we specifically here will start feeling tropical storm winds, and by Friday morning, we should be out of it.

This thing had my anxiety spiked pretty badly yesterday, for some reason, but today I feel much more on top of things. This is certainly not my first rodeo - I have attended numerous rodeos prior to this one. But anxiety is kind of unpredictable.

Fox still has physical therapy tomorrow for some bizarre reason. I was thinking of going with him (Wawa stop!) but I think I'll stay here in case it gets worse than expected and I need to go pick him up at the hardtop on the tractor. Cars and trucks may get stuck back here, but nothing is stopping that tractor.
