Oh Oklahoma.

Oh Oklahoma how I loathe thee. This tornado season thing is really stressing me out. I had no idea you had this sort of craziness when I decided to move here. Yes, my job is great and I really enjoy what I do (not mention I'm fantastic at it), but come on with this weather. Worrying all day about something out of my control really puts a toll on my whole being. I hurried to pick Gabriel up from school, practically ran through Wal Mart to get batteries, more flashlights, bottled water, and snacks to stock up the safe room "closet". I sat on the couch for 5 hours watching the news only to see the tornadoes pass right by us. Poor Gabriel sat with his helmet and shoes on the whole time. All the while saying how he kept hearing you need to have on a helmet and shoes. He even went as far as to cover his body in pillows. I should have gotten a picture. My boy sure is a rule follower. Not that I am complaining a tornado didn't hit my area. My mind is just so tired. And they say it will be like this the next two days. I just know the minute I relax and underestimate the storm is when it will hit. Insert big sigh. Guess I will just continue on with my overprotective, overreacting self until the season is over. I can hear Texas calling my name right now.
