Back to Normal

United States
September 19, 2017 9:16am CST
I'm happy to say that life is back to normal here in my house. My daughter is back from her few days away with friends and I did miss her. Even though it was nice to have some time to myself and I wasn't lonely I was very happy to see her when she came home last night. She had a wonderful time and I know she needed it desperately.She has the rest of the week off for vacation so I'm sure she's happy not to have to rush back to work right after being away. They probably would have stayed a few extra days but her friends all had to go back to work today. I took the dogs out this morning and there's a wonderful breeze blowing so when we came back from our very short walk we sat on the front porch for a little while and enjoyed some fresh air. I know we're supposed to get hot this afternoon so I was quite surprised that the weather was as cool as it was when we went outside. With hurricane Jose coming up the coast he is bringing lots of wind for our area even though he is 200 miles off in the Atlantic and I'm inland in Pennsylvania. Now hurricane Maria seems to be gearing up to be causing trouble right after Irma did her damage. I don't remember a hurricane season quite like this with hurricanes back to back. I'm sure it will be a fairly quiet day here today but I have no complaints. I know I need to call in a refill for my prescription and make out a grocery list so we can shop one day this week. Other than that, nothing new or exciting happening here. What's going on in your neck of the woods?

Watching Hurricane Maria - another big problem for some Caribbean islands.

@Kandae11 Thinking about you as Maria comes through the Caribbean. Hope it bypasses you

@andriaperry So far we have been lucky. Hoping our luck doesn't run out before the season is over.

Glad your daughter is back and that she has more time off too Marilyn. Yes I do not recall all these hurricanes so close together either. Have a wonderful day and nothing going on here but I do need to clean more.

Hurricane Maria seems as scary as Irma, it's unusual that all the hurricanes come together in the late season.

@Marilynda1225 I also do not remember so many and so powerful at once.

I don't remember this many hurricanes all at once and certainly not as destructive as Irma and now Maria.

Glad you didn't have a hard time with your prescription. When it comes to medication we certainly don't need problems

Is your daughter the one who went to Haiti? How did she enjoy the missions trip? I hope they didn't have trouble with hurricanes while she was there. I'm glad you had a nice walk and the weather was nice when you went out with the dogs.

It was my son and daughter in law that went to Haiti and they did very well on their mission trip. They missed both hurricanes while there (thank God). My youngest daughter lives with me and she went away for a few days with her friends and had a wonderful time

@Marilynda1225 Oh good, on both counts. I'm glad the missions trip was successful and they didn't have any hurricane action while they were there. I'm glad your daughter had a few good days with friends.

I am hoping you are not affected by Maria. I agree, this has been an extraordinary hurricane season so far. I am glad to hear your daughter has a good time.

A day of no plans so I made the plan to go do errands and work in the yard before rain moves in. Have a nice day.

Doesn't look like Maria is going to disappear and I think she's going to cause trouble
