Bringing Harmony to your Habitat: Even when want to pull your hair out.

Two weeks ago my bicycle was stolen while I was out of town visiting my family. I was angry at first but I quickly got over it. I'll just walk; there is no need for me to get bent out of shape over someone's bad deed. "Easy come, easy go," as they say. 

This morning when I took the dogs out, Archer and our foster-dog Stella, I noticed that Steven's bike was missing. I came back in and ask him was his bike at school or did he ride it home.
"It should be outside." he replied.

Bringing Harmony to your Habitat: Peace of Mind Before the Storm

Part 1

Having survived more than one natural disaster, one might think that I have the natural disaster preparedness down. Nope; I am nowhere near prepared for any major emergency. I intend to change that. As you read this, I have 5 websites open, all of which contain information on emergency preparedness. I'm going to learn just how prepared I can get.

Before I get to studying, I would like to tell you a little story about my hurricane and tornado preparedness in the past; I'll leave out the details to save a little time ;)

I was at my mother's home in south Mississippi, when hurricane Katrina hit. What did I do to prepare for the hurricane?

Bringing Harmony to your Habitat: Starting from Scratch

Here is a recount of my experience with the tornado that hit Tuscaloosa AL on April 27, 2011. I posted this on Facebook so that my family and friends would know what happened.

The day before the tornado (sometime in the early am) a water pipe in the apartment above ours burst and flooded two and a half rooms in our apartment. I had to do a lot of rearranging to make room for the fans and dehumidifiers. A third room had a tiny bit of water under a small table, so I moved the table into the living room to get it out of the workers way.

The day of the tornado I was in the computer room typing away on a story when my mother called and told me about a tornado in Tuscaloosa. I got off the phone and called Steven, who was on campus, to get more information. Steven, thinking it was somewhere else, told me that we should be all right.
