I hate chickens yet I work in the poultry industry.....
Today is 4/20. I'm sure there is something burning somewhere.I am usually able to tell what is burning by the smell. Down to the type of tree or wood.
Dixie, your post about chickens reminded me...as a kid, my dad < born in '33> worked in his dad's kosher butcher shop, plucking and slaughtering chickens by hand. He still has a thing about cooked whole birds as part of a meal or in a sample restaurant display.
Tornado... luckily you were in that building! How long did you have to wait in there?
Mine was: I was about 8/9 and we had been visiting my parent's friends and I was playing with their kids; it was in a more rural part of the county and we had come from the city. The weather started looking bad and I remember standing at the window of these people's house, looking at their pool and having a bad feeling, in my head I saw a tornado. My folks decided we should leave early so we did. We got caught in the tornado driving home. My mom says now she looked out the window of the car and saw the funnel behind us and to the side and thought we were gonna die - tornado, how far behind, don't know - but I remember the car shaking/rocking, the wind, my dad trying to keep the car on the road. I was screaming and the sirens were blaring and my mom was trying to hold me and it seemed like it just went ON and ON...we passed a large apt. complex and shortly thereafter the tornado took the whole thing out; also damaged some of the friend's home we been in earlier including their pool that I had been looking at and having a bad feeling/vision ....
VERY scary for us!
yeah, it sure was a wild one for us!
luckily you and your family were ok, too, especially being able to avoid that hotel sign - those can be so big! I imagine it may have seemed like a looooooong time waiting in there for 30 minutes!
Good thing that hotel was there for you guys to avoid the 3-hour drive - and that it had a sturdy area to hide in; some of the hotels I've been in are very "hit-or-miss" in terms of "robust-ness"/security/structure.....makes for an interesting travel experience so long as no tornadoes are involved

A beautiful woman like you? I find that hard to believe. Maybe it's just that no one that deserves a woman like you is around right now.

You just haven't met the man that knows how to appreciate you yet. In the meantime, I agree...live life to the fullest. Love finds us when we least expect it.

Everyone feels that at one time or other, including myself.
But I know there'll be someone out there for you. I really do hope so.
