Hurricane Preparations


As I posted we were up in Woodstock, VA for the weekend. When the forecast started to deteriorate for Richmond we decided to head back and get the house ready for the storm. This didn't include any serious preparations just cleaning up and taking advantage of the electricity while we still had. The kids decided to chip in and help. I didn't get a picture but Sean vacuumed the living room and they both helped me dust. I did about 99 loads of laundry, folded it all, and put it away. Whew! We are ready for a fun day at home now! And the house even stayed clean for....wait for it...a whole 8 minutes! A record!

Oh, I forgot to mention that we temporarily "lost" Sean today. Dan was watching football, Carter and I were taking a nap and Sean was playing quietly in his playroom. A while went by and Dan hadn't heard much from him so he checked on it only to find the room was empty. So he came upstairs wondering if he decided to nap in his bed or mine? Nope. Not in the attic, or in the closets. We are all running around frantically looking for Sean only to find him passed out under the train table in the playroom. Geez. He had us nervous for a minute. So much for "not being tired" and not "needing a nap". He was sound asleep and didn't even hear us calling his name!
