Oh my gosh but we had a terrible line of storms roll thru here last evening. We spent an hour or two underground in our shelter. When we finally came up, we found we had a huge tree down. But how's this?? It actually fell on top of our wood pile. Wasn't that nice? Honestly, you couldn't ask for more. LOL
The rain and wind was still quite strong when we went to bed - around 11:00 or so. Then at 2:00 am I woke up thinking.....what's that smell? Don't you know, my little dog had peed in the bed.....ON MY PILLOW. What???? First time she's ever done that and she's probably been sleeping in the bed for 7 years now. So I'm up and got sheets and mattress pad in the washing machine and I'm on the computer reading about how to get pee smell out of mattresses. I put her in the laundry room because I was angry and don't you know, she pooped on the floor in there....and I stepped in it. Ask me if I was mad.
This morning the mattress is dry and unstained (gotta love baking soda, hydrogen peroxide and dish detergent), my pillow is in the garbage can, and the little dog isn't speaking to me. Well, the feeling is mutual....LOL
Other than the one tree, it looks like we escaped major damage but I really haven't been out except to check on the horses, very briefly. I'll get dressed later and go out for a more detailed search once I am more fully awake. This getting up in the middle of the night for a couple of hours and then sleeping on the sofa has got me really tired. sigh.
