As most of you already know Wilma is getting ready to hit South Florida. And of course I live right where it is supossed to come thru. SO last night I went to Walmart and got supplies. Once I got home I took out my hurricane box - big rubbermaid/waterproof. I started to put everything in - including xtra cat fod/treats/litter. Joey must have really wanted to help. he brought me ALL of their toys, and draged his blanket over to me too. He is such a good helper! :D I still have to finish getting my closet ready - "Safe Room". This will be Joey first hurricane, I have seen Beth and Lulu take care of him during thunderstorms, they both lay ontop of Joey. I will be riding the storm out by myself with my kitties. (last year I had 8 cats and my cousin all stuffed into my closet :rolleyes: ) Please say prayers for my family and everyone esle in the path of this storm.

My sister and 3 yr old nephew live in Cape Coral (Ft. Meyers) thats where they are saying it is going to make landfall - then continue across the state and come tru in Stuart (where I live) and Pt. Saint Lucie (my parents live there). So far I have heard that it will be a Cat 3/ Cat 4 at landfall and NOT lose strenght as it moves across the state. :eek: I got a new roof last year after Frances and Jeanne. I am just worried about flooding. We are supposed to get heavy rain for 2 days. My parking lot floods when we get a regular storm. All I can do is hope for the best and keep fingers and paws crossed!

Keeping fingers and paws crossed that all will be well and safe. At least you will be with your furbabies. Hoping that it isn't as bad as they predict.

Stay safe. We're thinking of you.

Alright guys, I had to say I am kinda freaking out now! I just read that they are prediciting the storm eye to move over Fort Pierce - which is about 20 miles North of me. The worst of the storm will be on the South side - which means right where I live. :eek: We will start to get winds at 120- 125 mph starting Saturday morning - the worst will happen late Sunday night into Monday. For some reason I have a BAD felling about this storm. I got a direct hit from Frances and Jeanne last year and didn't have this feeling I have now. I have all the supplies and am as ready as I can be. Me and my kitty cats will be holding out in the bathroom for a while - that should be a load of fun! :D I guess I will just pray and hope for the best. Thanks to everyone for listening to me and for your support.

I wish I could go up North to NY (I have family there) but I need to be able to get back to work ASAP. We will be working off of generators untill power is restored. Worked like that for 5 days last year. Not much fun, but when you deal with the Chicago Board of Trade, you do what you have to. I will post again as soon as I am able to. Thanks again for everything!
