Weather...

Everyone gather around the radio or T.V. it is time for a weather alert. The kids stop fighting, everyone stops talking, and we all listen to the weather statement. Tornato warning? Yikes! Hit the cellar kids! We all scatter and hope to get the kids down in the cellar before the adult have to run down the stairs. "Mommy, aren't you coming down here? Not now. But the tornado is coming our way! But you'll get blown away!" Why do us adults think we are faster than the clouds? We send the kids down, but we'll have time to get in when we see the tornado coming our way... all 20 of us can make it down the stairs at the same time! Not to mention some of us are overweight and can't move as fast as others. Some of us have stiff ankles and can't bend them right, so we go one foot at a time. But we'll all be safe and get in just in time... just in time for the storm to hit and suck us all out of the cellar because we waited to long to get in. If the storm isn't coming your way, don't get in the cellar, but if it is and there is a big group, get in the cellar so there won't be a loss of lives. Stay safe this storm season.... Marlene
