Last night the forecast was dour…Tropical Storm Hannah was headed at us and may have become Hurricane Hannah when she arrived. The generator gassed up, bottled water, and batteries at the ready.
My beautiful wife Audrey was headed out for a last minute grocery store run in the wind and the rain. We needed a few staples such as milk, eggs, and vodka…the latter for dressing wounds of course.
So a few minutes later she came home to proclaim the stores were closing and she was only able to grab a couple things before the lights went out. That worried me before she told me she was smart enough to go to the liquor store before the grocery store.
Phew, now we were truly prepared…two bottles of vodka and a box of pretzel twists…what a woman!
