We've had a couple of days of really high winds and sudden downpours, and last night I really thought the end had come.
I had gone to bed and was reading my book. The kids were asleep, just, and K was out...yes, again! He really is a bit of a dirty stop out these days!!!
Anyway, the wind suddenly got up (it had seemed to settle down earlier in the evening) and was rattling the windows. Then the heavens opened. It sounded like it must have been hailstones, and they were being thrown at the windows and roof with such force that I was actually quite scared. I checked that the kids were okay...both fast asleep! How they slept through the racket I'll never know! I thought the skylight in the bathroom was going to be smashed!
I had to stay awake till K got home, just to make sure he was alright! I think he was quite pleased that I had been worrying about him!
Anyway, this morning I was very grateful to see that the sitootrie was still standing and the trees out the front were not all broken and uprooted!!
Who says I'm a drama queen?????
Gratefully yours.
