Hi All.....Thanks to everyone who posted and PM'd me to see If we were o.k., Lily and I went to my Mom's yesterday morning becasue I didn't want to be in the house with just me and Lily, and I didn't want my Mom to be alone. Hubby has been in Atlanta all week. We were under tornado warnings all day yesterday until about 8:00 last night. I hate this time of year. We got lucky becasue it was not as warm here as it was further south. About 7:00 last night, we had to get in the closet becasue one was headed straight to my Mom's house. It never touched down, thankfully. The most scary part of yesterday is that my niece, (my brother's daughter) and her husband and 2 little ones live in Enterprise(about 3 hrs south of Birmingham) where the tornado hit the school. I didn't know until it was on CNN about 1:00 yesterday. I called my brother who lives here and he didn't know about it, he was at work. At that point they were only talking about the school and we didn't know whether the whole city had been hit or not. I was freaking out. My brother finally got in touch with them about 3:00 and everything was fine. My niece's husband used to teach at the high school, but went back to school and got another degree in engineering. He is now the city engineer for Enterprise. Needless to say he will be pretty busy for a while. All and all it was a pretty scary day, but all is well.
