So. We have a cyclone about to smack into my neck of the woods. I have given yard tidying assignments to the spawn, I have a mission to go forth and acquire essentials. In this case, paper, tape, a tarp or two, and kibble for the cats.
I'll pick up some extra meat for just in case. Best to be sure than sorry.
After I return from my acquisitions, I'll be doing all the doomsday prepping I can before I settle down for some fiction.
Wish me luck. I think I'll need it.
