Prepared

There is a tsunami warning in effect for Hawaii due to a major earthquake in Chili. The state will not sound the warning sirens for another hour so the only way people know now is if they were up in the middle of the night watching t.v. or if someone who was called them and told them. I was one who received the news via the latter method.

Gene just went down to the bank machine to grab cash. He said the lines are nuts and the parking lot at Safeway is packed. It seems alot of people are up in the middle of the night watching t.v.

We are ready - thanks mostly to a church that teaches us to be prepared - we have everything we might need.

But I've often thought that its what you know in your head that is probably more critical than what you can carry in your arms and on your back.

Thankfully, again, the church programs have taught us much of what we need to know in emergency situations.

We should be fine - our home is in a safe zone - we're stocked and ready - we are healthy.

And, of course, no matter what happens we are being watched over constantly. What a peaceful feeling!
