Yes Janet, that is what happens when your mind jumps ahead of you LOL!! Thanks for the congrats everyone :) We had an eventful anniversary. We had to work last night and if any of you haven't heard we were in tornado valley yesterday evening up through the night. From what I've heard we had 1(for sure), possibly 2 tornadoes in the town of Pulaski, 1 in Draper, 1 in Willis (Floyd County) and 1 in Bluefield that was headed this way but never heard anything else about that one. There is so much area in the town of Pulaski and the County around the town that is blocked off by law enforcement. The National Guard has been called in to help and a state of emergency has been called. I've heard that two areas are no more pretty much, they were leveled. There is a lot of damaged but only minimal injuries have been reported and no fatalities Praise the Lord!! I found myself praying at work, while we were just waiting to see what was going to happen next, not only for our safety but the people around these tornadoes. Dad's sister and one of his brothers live in the town and at this time we weren't sure what had been hit. Pulaski is only about 8 minutes from us and Draper maybe 10 minutes. We had several bad thunderstorms here with hail and it seemed like it was lightening constantly for 5 hours. If yal want to see any of this the local news websites are WSLS.com and WDBJ.com. Mark says we're in for round 2 this evening with tornado and thunderstorm warnings/watch until 9 and as I type this I can hear the thunder rolling. Keep us in your prayers as always. Love to all :)
