I've Done the Unthinkable...

Who would have ever guessed that I would willing give up my tickets to the opening game of the LSU football season? I hated to do it but it was must. Saturday is going to be my only day off for what I am projecting is going to be a long time. I need to stay home and get things in order: pay bills, clean, laundry and pick up things in the yard. Yes Gustav is on his way and it looks like Hanna will be on his heels. Thanks for all the well wishes and prayers...I fear we are going to need all of them.

We have been operating in emergency mode for the last couple days. I am confident in our plan we have in place, but all plans go out the window once the storm makes landfall.

I hope to have some time to post next week, but a I can't promise.

My plans are to move into the office or more likely with my grandparents on Monday. I did this during Katrina and Rita to be closer to our crews and the office, which is tough to leave your family behind not knowing if you will be able to communicate with them after the storm and knowing that they could be with out electricity for quite a few days. Another thing is it's a lot more nerve racking when you leave a home you are still paying for. I just pray for the best.

Hopefully we have spent a lot of time planning and preparing for nothing.

Yeah! The Olympics are here...

I love the Olympics. I can't wait to sit and watch the continuous coverage. I know with all the controversy about it being in China and all the negative reports maybe I shouldn't be as excited as I am. But for as long as I can remember I have loved the Olympics so I plan on watching as much of it as I possibly can. Go USA!!
