Thanks for the coffee! We were up late last night and up early (6) this morning. DH made oatmeal.

A friend is coming for lessons on how to make jelly this morning. She is getting married in October and DH is walking her down the aisle. Her husband to be lives on his father's 900 acre ranch and she has fallen in love with country living. She lived with us for a year about 10 years ago and I introduced her to gardening. Now she is planning a spring garden and her future DH is all on board with it. LOL

I wrapped her wedding gifts yesterday, 2 cases of canning jars and the Ball Book of Canning and a utensil kit of canning supplies. I used feed sacks and duct tape. LOL LOL

I was going to say that but didn't want to "offend" you.

The news is showing flooding and people who didn't evacuate are now flooded, some on their roofs, begging to be rescued. I think the first thing the rescuers should do is kick them in the butt. They were told to leave.

Y'all stay safe.

Not done, gal! Where's the hay bale sisal ribbon???

Yeah, those who did not evacuate need more than a scolding. I will say, though, that SOME did not leave because their animals could not be accommodated. However, there were organizations that would help with many of them if they were contacted in advance. There are those with $$$ issues to move.

MOST were just in denial that they would not be able to "handle" it all. BAD JUDGEMENT!

I believe bunnylady was right there in Wilmington. Hope someone has contact to know she is ok. Baymule had contacted me by msg and offered to advise my situation if my net was out & I could not "check in" -- for which I was thankful! Hope bunnylady has such a base to reach!

There are SEVERAL BYH members in NC -- pls all check-in or someone do check on them & report that so we know people are ok.

Bunnylady posted on BYC sometime after midnight that the power had gone out. Conserving phone battery. Said they are far enough up that the storm surge won't get them.

They shouldn't be close enough to kick them in the butt. There were a lot of people interviewed by the press that said they had been through "x" hurricanes and they were going to ride this one out too. They deserve no help at all when they are up on their roofs yelling "save me!".
