So we've had lots of time to get ready:

*Gas tank full- check
*Canned goods for up to five days- check
*Bottled water- check
*Batteries, candles, matches...ugh...I forgot the matches.  Oh well, but see?  There's still time to get to the store!

From my friend Nancy:


...Ever notice how everything associated with getting ready for a hurricane is so heavy?  Shutters, bottled water, canned foods (by the case)....
