Lori and Hanna

I foresee my little sister as being an actor or singer or the next Opera Winfrey when she grows up. She can sense when a problem is around, when I was her age, if anything but if my G was making cookies was going on I didn’t know about it. Lori knows of course my Mom isn’t well, she also sees my parents don’t get along as they should. She knows when I’m tired or in a mood because that’s the very moment she demands my attention, any other day I’m non existent to her. She can be loving and sensible and try to talk to you as an adult.
When she was much younger I could coax her to find Jacks and sing and dance for him, he hated when she came in his room and made her productions. Or at least he put on a great act of disgust when she put do her made up tunes and dance steps.
Right now we are getting ready for the tropical storm Hanna to blow in, I’m not so much worried about this one as I was earlier, due to the fact it’s diminished in strength. Of course, this is Thursday and anything can happen between now and Friday night when it’s supposed to make landfall.
Tonight we plan on packing a smallish bag and I do mean smallish to go to the inside house for a couple of nights. If there be a storm surge that may cause us some problems I don’t want my little sister or Mom to have to hassle with that.
I plan on picking up all the lawn items so they don’t blow away and making sure all electrical tools are high on shelves along with putting my Pops RX7 up on the ramp. Grabbing the required survival items for the inside house, bottled water, food, batteries, fuel, and movies!
Like I said, I don’t think we will be having any issues with Hanna when she does come ashore but it never hurts to be prepared.

Jacks used to tell me so much about Lori, she's sounds absolutely adorable as always.
And I don't think he ever hated it, just Jackson bein' him ;)

Good luck dealing with Hannah though, even though she's not a hurricane..she still has a name which is something more than a thunderstorm.
