Or should we call him a bastard?

Anyway, he tore up the country to hell and back, including the Ohio Valley area where I live.  The area got hit with some killer straight line winds, and sadly, I mean killer in the literal sense.  A number of people died when trees came crashing down on their homes.  A few people also died trying to help others.

🙁  My heart goes out to their families.

My family and I all came through fine and no real damage was done to our home, although some shingles did take flight.  Nothing there that can’t be easily repaired and I’m thankful my family and my home escaped unscathed.

ETA:  We now have power…gonna try to get some work done if my tired brain will let me.

We are out of power, though, which makes it real interesting at home.  We decided to take the kids to their grandparents until power is restored.  That’s where I am right now, although later, I will be going back home.  Until power is back on, I won’t be messing with the blog much, but it should only be a few days.
