Man, you should see all the Florida license plates showing up here in Atlanta. We were told earlier that we should expect more traffic congestion. And, I just got a notice from the Weather Channel that Frances has taken a southerly turn and it's now expected to make landfall near Jupiter which isn't too far away from my Gram. Apparently, the old folks home will bus up all the old folks and take them to a Holiday Inn somewhere inland. If they take Mrs. M to the hotel, hopefully they'll let her take her Absolute with her. She'll be just fine, then. I just worry about my mum's place in Ft. Lauderdale. In June she dropped over $5K to renovate the condo and there is nobody there to put up the hurricane shutters. I just saw there are still seats on planes to and from Ft. Lauderdale. I have to see if she wants me to go down in the morning.
As for me, Day-day and I are off to see Sting and Anne Lennox at Phillips Arena tonight. Two of my all time favourites. Nose-bleed seats were $50 bucks, so I'm not the only one in Atlanta who's a fan.
Tomorrow, I get to dig out the north side of my house. After the torrential downpour yesterday, I found out that we did a great job waterproofing the south and east side of the house, but that northside became Niagra Falls. Since they're saying there's a good chance we'll get a bunch of Frances' rain, I figure I've got until Saturday afternoon to get it done or say goodbye to all the materials we bought last week to finish the basement. Fun fun stuff planned for the weekend.
Gotta run as a long weekend is about to commence.
My prayers are with you, Florida.
