MORNING AFTER A BAD WEATHER NIGHT

Thankfully last night's impending bad weather didn't occur in our neighborhood, but a few miles directly north of my house, there were several homes severely damaged by high winds (possibly tornado). My son's girlfriend knows one family that had damage to their home. I had prepared my closet to take cover in before attiring for bed. The TV weathermen warned us all evening long of the tornadoes spotted in the State of Oklahoma. This time of year we all need to take special heed to the weathermen's warnings.

This morning started out to be a dreary day, windy and cloudy with a few sprinkles of rain, but as the day progressed, it turned out to be warm, cloudless, and sunny.

I have e-mailed, instant messaged and talked on telephone to friends today. My friend, Lorene, and I went to Remington Park Casino to claim her birthday gift. I played the slots with money given to me by the casino and won and Lorene also won. We knew when to leave -- money in our pockets rather than stay and loose it all.

I thank the Lord that there were no injuries in last night's storm.
