My friend Jessica is moving to the five points area of Huntsville next week with her new Husband & little dog Sawyer. The picture below shows what passed over their neighborhood tonight! Thank Goodness they haven't moved in yet. My grandmother called me 3 times to make sure they were okay. Sad thing is I had no idea there was even a tornado in that area. I need to watch the news!

This brings me back to a childhood memory of a tornado hitting Huntsville when I was a little girl. I remember that my dad was not at home. It was just me, my mom and my baby sister (literally a baby). I was so scared. I didn't really understand everything but I could sense how tense the house was. This single event made me afraid of the Wizard of Oz for several years to come. I still do not like the tornado section of that movie nor tornado warnings in real life. My college years in Tuscaloosa brought on many tornado warnings. My dad would always call and say "Go to the sorority house" and sure enough we'd all pile in and watch James Spann. Needless to say I get very antsy when the weather looks rough. I'm just glad today's tornado didn't cause too much damage and that my best friend hadn't moved in yet to go thru the storm.
Have a Fabulous Friday... I swear this work week can't end fast enough.
