Yesterday I got my prescriptions filled, mailed items, got the garbage out and back in and now I am good to go or stay in rather. Today I moved brush, brought in litter and salt from my car and moved my car up to the garage door. I usually park it under the trees so it isn't in the sun but with the storms coming I thought it would not be a good idea for it to be under the trees. My garage is full as I had been planning a garage sale before Covid arrived so I need to clear that out. So, with all that done I am ready. I just pray we don't lose power! I'm also very glad I do not live in those coastal areas. I would hate to have to evacuate! But the remains of Laura are going to reach us here in Arkansas so I had to prepare.
I've also been doing cooking and laundry and staying on top of things that require electricity just in case. I made homemade hamburger buns for the first time. They are delicious and they were easy! Next time I'll make them a bit bigger...........
I also baked some oatmeal with peaches and you can make it the day before and stick it in the frig until the next morning to be baked............it was also delish! It has everything in it so all I did was pour some milk on top.
I am accumulating plastic bags again since Walmart does my shopping for me so I was looking for a way to neatly store all of them. I found a video on You Tube on how to fold them like this. It is the same way they fold the American flag. I have a big old pickle jar I may store them in....we'll see.
I changed sheets and I've been working a bit more on my crafts room and watering outside of course. I'll be grateful for the rain!
Stay safe and stay well where ever you are!
Happy Trails!!!

Stay safe! I have a brother in Texas and another in Mississippi. They are battening down the hatches too.
Hopefully all you get is your much needed rain. Stay safe
A neighbor gal that went to school with our girls lives in New Iberia LA she has been doing live videos. Sounds like a really bad storm:(
Stay safe Sam:)
Laura sounds like a storm that will likely cause a lot of damage along the coast and even inland a ways. You made lots of preparations so it sounds like you're as ready as can be. That oatmeal looks yummy and so do the hamburger buns. I've been doing the Walmart pickup thing for groceries too. Yesterday for the first time I didn't get three things that they charged me for and didn't offer substitutions. I think someone just forgot the items. They did reimburse me for them, but they were things we really needed so I ended up going to another store and going inside. It was terrifying. It's been a long time since I went into a store with more than 3-4 people in the entire store.
Take care and stay safe.
Blessings,

I saw on our news report the line of people in their cars waiting to evacuate Dallas. Praying for everyone's safety. It's not as if we don't all have enough to contend with.
That hurricane caused so much destruction, I feel for everyone affected. Hope it wasn't too bad for you.
No, it was really nothing here. We've had thunderstorms worse than that but you never know. I think the weather people exaggerate and they wonder why some don't pay attention. Yes, and the saddest part is that there are so many without insurance and that are already poor to begin with.
You are so right! Personally I would not live somewhere that I had to evacuate. But each to their own plus some are too poor to move or go anywhere else. I'ts so sad to see al the destruction especially of people's homes and all their belongings.
I'm glad I haven't needed anything else because Walmart is the only game in town here.
It wasn't bad here at all....my lawn chairs didn't even get knocked over but there were some tornadoes around....I was lucky!
Yes, and that is what happened!
I hope they are alright?!
