10th Anniversary

This year we celebrate our 10th anniversary.  I was so looking forward to a relaxing trip to the mountains in November, but we are not going to be able to go.  Eddie's car is broken and we have to purchase another one. I have started planning already for vacation next year in August so that we can spend a week in the mountains then.  I just need help coming up with some fun stuff to do at home this year for our anniversary.  All ideas are welcome.

Hurricane Elvis

My how time flies.  10 years ago today I was leaving for work not suspecting any bad weather was in Memphis.  I had finished breakfast but did not watch any tv.  I got to Collierville and it was raining pretty hard.  By the time I made it to the Houston Levee overpass I had to pull over.  The wind was so strong and it felt like I was going to get blown off the road.  I could not call Eddie and talk to him because he was in Wales. I finally made it to work and there were trees down everywhere.  The phone service was intermittent so I spoke with my grandparents when I could get a call through.  As I sit in my office today, I stare at the sky and watch the lightning wondering if we are going to have a repeat performance.  I know that GOD is in control and if the weather gets bad I know that he will protect me.  I hope everyone in Memphis and the surrounding areas stay safe today.  Don't get caught out in this weather.  Have a blessed day.
