hot bubbling lava, funnel of wind...they're almost the same

I have started keeping a little girl for an hour and a half in the afternoon. She's in kindergarten and is the cutest little blue-eyed blonde you ever did see. Her name is Caroline also, which is fun, and today she said the most hilarious thing. Evah.

We've been having a lot of rain over the last 48 hours. I'm not dissin' rain cause we needed it in a big way. Thank you Jeeeeessssusssss! Anyway, there was a tornado(ish) thingy in the northern part of our county today, so they put all the schools on lockdown. (I don't really believe the smack about the tornado because alls I saw was heavy rain...whatev.) Anyway, Caroline came over after school and told me they all had to get under their desks because there was a -

Volcano Drill.


Tornadoes, Volcanoes, its easy to get the two confused. Sweet little lamb. If she only knew that crouching under her desk covering her head would never work during a volcano drill.

Good thing she's got 12 more years of school left to learn important things like this.

That is precious! My daughters asks for more potatoes, what she means is more tomatoes. The blond will have red hair one way or the other. Know what I'm sayin'.

Q & A answers tomorrow.(Thurs.)

That is funny! Yeah, the heavy rain was all Heather saw too. Her volcano was real, that's for sure!

Hey, thanks for the heads up on my non-updating feed. I thought I had not managed to do anything about it, but now I see it's all caught up. Everyone should have friends like you. That's why I voted you Ms. Congeniality!
