Well it's 2:29 a..m. on Friday morning, and I'm watching the weather channel. Not that I'm a firm believer in the weather channel over any other weather man!! teeheehee But they are getting battered down in Hatteras….sorry!!! Not hurricane force winds, yet. Power poles on fire in Southern Shores, 7 inches of water on hwy 12, 50 mph winds. Do I go on?? And since we live only a few miles apart….let me see….I went out on our back deck, the wind has picked up, trees are blowing, not bending…swaying. But it is blowing hard enough that our motion detectors are staying on and I can see the water in the pool rippling. Sooooo I guess Earl is coming our way, let's see what he has for us….

Oh my, the weather man is getting a nice facial, all that pounding rain and blowing sand, what do you think??

Hold tight, don't blow away…..

Hope mom can get things secured. My sister is in Kitty Hawk, I'm on the mainland across from Sanderling. Think all will be okay, but honestly I'm up for the distraction: http://lisa-griffiths.com/earl-turns-me-on/

Prayers are with you and your family . . and your furniture! After he swings by your beach, Earl is headed our way, but NYC is fairly well-protected except for the wind & rain. We have boots like we wore when we were seven to keep our feets dry as we scurry about the city, with no hope for getting a taxi. Umbrella-sellers are mobilizing now. Btw, if you fillgallon or 5-gallon jugs (or recycle soda bottles) with tap water and store them in the basement or under the bed, you won't have to buy water when weather's tempers flare and store shelves are most likely to be empty. We can do without a lot of things, but water isn't one of them. Also learning to swim.

All the outdoor furniture “missiles” and broken glass can be cleaned up and/or replaced…you cannot. Take care of yourselves!

You guys do have the most colorful weather in the States. Here its just sunshine and rain. Nothing remotely dramatic.

Grandpa, what big foot you have…
All the better to stomp with, dear.
Happy to hear Andrew’s ankle is healing well. He is gonna be out of commission for a long while though. Is he going to wear casts?

The Align is kinda pricey but for the help it seems to provide–I am on board. I have an appt in October to see a specialist at UCSF. I ate a veggie burger with raw tomato and lettuce on Sunday and paid for it with extreme bloating and pain. Amazing how this little bit affected me. Excited to see your bulletin board and appreciate your feedback. Makes me feel less alone in the quest to feel better when I can share with “other sufferers”. Thanks Katherine.

God, Honey, you guys stay safe. These things scare the hell out of me. Please keep us posted.

I hope Earl stays way out there and you don't have to worry. Does your mom have any friends that can help her secure her lawn furniture? Yikes.

Have a terrific day and I've got my fingers crossed that Earl misses you by many miles.

I heard insects are very good for gastroparesis, especially those with salt and vinegar.
