Weather Paranoia

[Janet]

I have a story...LOL

When Ricky went to a babysitter, we had her two sons come and spend the night one night. That night we had tornado warnings and storms all over central Indiana and particularly in our county. Their mom called just frantic saying that there was a tornado spotted on the ground southwest of them traveling northeast. She told me to hurry (I'm in direct line of her only about 10 miles farther northeast) and get the kids in the basement and to keep safe. All I could do is laugh (she's was a little too tightly wound at times) and tell her that she'd better get off the phone because it was going to hit her before it would hit me.

Rick took the boys to the storm cellar, but it was just too dirty and I had just taken my shower. So I just laid in bed and watched TV till they came back up.
