The Nashville 2010 Weather Event will not take us down with it! Let me start by saying our entire family is safe, just slightly in disbelief over everything we are witnessing – both in our backyard and on the news.

We really thought that by moving AWAY from Florida, we would avoid being stuck in our home for prolonged periods of time because of insane amounts of water.

I officially admit my mistake.

Still, I’m thankful there are not 100+ mph winds that are accompanying this catastrophe. not that I’m trying to make light of the situation. To this point, 5 people have lost their lives and many are still stranded, so this is far from over.

This morning, every news channel has warned us “not to leave our homes – not even for church”, so here we are, riding out the battery power on the computer and praying that our power stays on and that the water levels at Hillmeade don’t match those on our highways.

So say a prayer for everyone in this part of the country since this storm is far from over. And while you’re at it, leave a comment below with your favorite activities for when your family is stranded in the house!
