Last Thursday and Friday nights we had thunderstorms that kept you awake. The kind where your whole room lights up with the lightening and loud booming thunder. Needless to say we did not get much sleep those nights. To add to the no sleep, Drama Queen was leaving at 6:30am Saturday morning on a chartered bus to the other end of the state. Saturday was supposed to be a rainy and stormy all day. How was a mother in her right mind supposed to let her daughter leave on a bus in that kind of weather? Well, I guess I am the only mother in her right mind. I was debating the decision up until minutes before she was supposed to be there. We called one of her friends who was going and they were already at the church and another one was on her way. So my husband went ahead and took her and she was the last one to arrive. Luckily, about an hour after they left the rain quit and it appeared that they were traveling right in the middle of 2 storms. They made it with no problem.
Now for the very cruel part, Drama Queen is traveling home today and guess what? We are expecting severe weather, under a flood watch due to inches of rain expected. The rain has yet to hit but is on it’s way. She is due in about 7:00 tonight so I hope that she makes it in before it gets too bad. She just text me and they are half way here. So, I am crossing my fingers, sending prayers, etc, anything to get my baby here safely. Will you do the same?
Sorry, I just read your blog or I would have prayed for her earlier. Hope they made it home safely. Thankfully the bad weather didn’t come. We’ll see if it hits us overnight. By the way, I saw your Mom and Dad last night at Factory Card Outlet. Your poor Mom in her cast. Made me cringe to see that.
