Are you supposed to have any of these storms tonight? I'm shaking in my boots.

I actually think they are going to miss us tonight. They are saying we will be hit tomorrow. But girlfriend, Kansas is in the path for tonight. I know because my daddy is there. I wanted him to come home but he isn't very scared of storms. We will be praying you all are safe. Do you have a shelter?

I cried like a baby when he brought her home to me. Don't know how she was even still alive. Let's just say she is a happy girl now!! Meet Miss Ginger!

Ginger looks like a sweetheart! Our neighbor rescued a beagle a few years ago and it is so heartwarming to see her doing so well in good care. She was like Ginger, so skinny. Now she has filled out and has a super shiny coat.

Oh, yes! Basement. We're ready to head there, but I'm just 3 miles from the MO state line, so it probably won't be here until 11-12 tonight? I don't really know and neither do the forecasters. It's a wait and see. I'm just 60 miles from Joplin.

I killed a rattlesnake just outside her fenced yard one year. It was sunning itself when I almost walked over it.

I still get chills thinking of your coyotes, the shadows running through your yard.

We have a big owl too. They are so neat, but deadly.

DH says I have made Ginger fat! But she isn't fat. She is just fatter. She sure loves her new home. When DH got her she was eating leaves and dirt. It was awful! When I got her I gave her some of Rosie's home cooked food and vitamins. I think it really helped her because she was in such bad shape. She had started loosing hair too. It was just a horrible site. But she is much better now!

We had a Beagle named Charlie that we rescued when we lived at our other house. He had been abused. I took him in as my baby. He was one of the best dogs we ever had.

I am so glad your neighbor rescued! They are really wonderful dogs!!

She is a sweetie. My old boss rescued a little beagle. He's the sweetest little guy and just adores his adoptive family, because they are so good to him.

I am glad you have a safe place to go!! My dad is in Arcadia Kansas. Is that anywhere close to you? I think he is on the border too?

I really didn't know they came that big. We've had the smaller owls before.

I didn't remember to tell you that we were out in her fenced yard one night and I couldn't see what it was, but I heard something running through the south part of the yard and it was running really fast. It was too dark to see that far. Scared me to death!

He's just a few miles from me. Fort Scott. Arcadia is just a few miles down the road in the next county!

Poor Charlie. Our neighbor's beagle was abused too, but she has really come out of her shell and trusts people now. It unbearable to think about.

That would have scared me to death too. This is why I don't like going out in our yard after dark. It is really dark here and who knows what is lurking.
