We're all on Storm Watch... by Weezilou

We're all on Storm Watch...

On this very busy day, this was all I photographed, but she's a lovely subject for a photo...

I began my day with a second trip to the dentist, and I'm likely going to need a root canal. I'd just have it taken care of as a matter of course if we were home, but now we are weighing decisions as to wait or close up and return to California early.

Hurricane Fiona is headed our way, so Ken did shopping preparation, and we baked... A lovely batch of ginger-pear scones, 2 batches of Split Pea Soup, Crispy Oatmeal and Coconut cookies and a batch of bread.

If (when) the electricity goes out, during daylight, we'll start packing things around the house. We've got all the food and water we'd need, candles and flashlights, some sterno for heating food; we're ready!

I love a good storm...we're curious to see what it all sounds like overnight.
Great capture and stay safe

Such a pretty puss. Be careful and stay safe out there!

What an elegant kitty. Nice portrait. I'm sorry about your dental woes.
September 23rd, 2022  
Oh dear. So sorry about your tooth! I didn’t even think about you when I saw Fiona’s track. I just focused on the way it will miss the US eastern coastline. Your storm cooking sounds so good! Hope all will be well, dear one. 🥰

Hello, beautiful kitty! @weezilou please stay safe!
September 23rd, 2022  
The kitty looks a little sad or tired. Hope the storm doesn't cause any damage for you, but it sounds like you are well prepared. Will be thinking of you.

Good luck with the storm; take care. (Lovely kitty portrait)

I heard it was headed your way. We have our eyes on the next storm. ☹️ You really know how to storm prep!

@danette Slaves to our stomachs! Good luck with your next round! I don't like it when I hear them called "monsters"!!
September 23rd, 2022  
Lovely kitty. Glad youall are prepared
September 23rd, 2022  
Lovely portrait - she's so pretty!
September 23rd, 2022  
She is a lovely subject, and poses so well! Good luck with the tooth decision and the storm! Sounds like you are well prepared.
September 23rd, 2022  
Hope Fiona passes safely by... and you might enjoy a storm, but does your puss??
September 23rd, 2022  
Will be keeping my fingers crossed that all goes well.

Sweet kitty pic! Keep her and you all SAFE during Fiona that is headed your way! Sounds like you are prepared and have some delicious food. Eat dessert first! :) Hope your tooth doesn't hurt too much. I have never had very good luck with a root canal. I opted to have my tooth pulled and got an implant instead.

She is gorgeous! I just looked up the news on Hurricane Fiona....she sounds a bit of a biggie. Stay safe, dear friends.
I adore a good storm too!
I have had root canal several times. Not much fun lying there having the treatment, but it took the pain away and made all the difference. Wishing you all the best!

Beautiful capture!
Wow you sound so calm, hope all stays well!
September 23rd, 2022  
A lovely cat portrait. I hope that the storms passage is uneventful.
September 23rd, 2022  
Sweet capture. You sound to be well prepared for the storm, stay safe.

Beautiful cat! Stay safe!

@will_wooderson Dinah's history is that we found and adopted her in the summer of 2015. When we left, a neighbour asked if they could give her a forever home...'twas best for the cat. Since then, when we're here in the summer, she acts like she has two homes, but she knows where to go for dinner and when it's time to batten down the hatches!

Great shot of this cuty
( Take good care and stay healthy. Those times I was sailing I to love to sail a storm. Makes me feel a part of natures elements.)

@pyrrhula I would agree! I "Joke" that where we live in California, we have "no weather"! Mostly sunny days, a little rain and NO thunder storms! I LOVE the weather up here, as you said, "experiencing nature's variety of elements!"

@Weezilou We have plenty of weathers . Often four seasons on one day.
September 23rd, 2022  
Beautiful beautiful.

Wonderful photo!
I hope you and the kitty stay safe! Sounds like you are prepared :-) I remember being in the Dom Republic when hurricane George hit, quite the experience. Don't tend to get it in the UK all that often, thankfully.

@blightygal Thanks for the concern...one never knows which area will ultimately take it on the chin, but we came though just fine! I'll attach your name into my recent reply on the next photo!
