... be prepared for these eventualities:

Embarrassment because the fire chief clearly sees that, when the lightning struck your drier vent, it was perhaps because it wasn't vented properly...

Firemen are my heros, but, ma-en, there were more sooty handprints all over the place to clean up than I have time for!

Phones went out.

Computer = ka-put.

No internet.

No cable.

No T.V.

No oven! (thus, no cookies baked!)

No drier (till the R.D.'s weekend, anyway. IF it still works).

Worst of all, no MYSPACE! Now I am even further behind in reading your blogs, writing letters, and leaving comments -- Yikes!

Good news? R.D. was asleep under a window just above where the lightning struck... I am grateful that he is not toast. Also grateful my kitten moves faster than lightning so that she, also, is not toast!

On the other hand, I have a new silver streak in my hair... I shall photograph it for you soon : )

More good news... I still have my old computer so I can be typing this!

Lvoe you all,
K

Wow...so glad you, RD and the kitty are ok.  Bet that was scary.  Sounds like you had a Texas storm :)  We have been having major lightening and rain this past week.  And the wind has been terrible.  Thought for sure my bedroom was gonna blow away the other night. 

Hugs and love
Bevs

Whoa - did the lightning hit you? And do you have superpowers as a result? Because I can think of some things we could do with my mind and your electrical abilities and silver streak.

the drier vent?  if nature stops you from drying your laundry outside by raining, then fucks up your drier she must be a bit peeved. Wow! Sounds like one of those scary but cool sort of natural events. glad that everyone is ok, although i agree with ernie - you may now have some superpower, we shall call you the silver streak from now on!
hugs

Well, the fixing of cable, phone, and internet, and the contacting of the ins. company on a weekend is not my idea of sport, lol. How's by you? I have NOT forgotten our coffee klatsch (Spelling?), but in this un-airconditioned house, I never invite company until it is less that 100 degrees in here, lol! Hugs to you!
