Tornado Warnings & Watches

Yep...since about 6am there have been 2 in different locations.  Where I live we don't normally see these things and these are actually in counties that are about 50 miles away.  However, one that has reported 7 lives lost is in an area just 20 miles southwest of Wilmington, and I'm 20 miles NE of Wilmington.

Praying.....me no likey Tornado's.  Tara is at school, I didn't want to send her there, but Tom says that's ususally a safe spot.

ME?  I think I have strep throat.  Ugh!  Not sleeping well at all and when I do lay down my throat completely closes up causing me to not be able to breathe.....so I'm "sleeping" on the couch upright.  I hate sore throats.  So I'm heading to the Dr now before the weather gets worse.....the doc is only about 5 miles from me so I hope it will be a quickie.  I'm so tired.  I'm taking Tylenol then Advil and back and forth alternating about every 3-4 hours. 

I did chow down on 1/2 a jar of salsa last night hoping that would "burn" this mess out.......not this time.  Sure cure?  $100 to the doc, $15 drugs & lots of fluid.  Gee thanks.  All I want for Christmas is my money back!!!!
