Tornado Alert

*** UPDATE***

EVERYONE IS OKAY, BUT CECILE IS UNABLE TO USE HER COMPUTER .
~~~~~~~~~
This is to alert you the CNN just reported tornadoes are all over Arkansas and Little Rock is being pounded with them. I believe the alert extends to well after midnight. As most of you know, both Bindi and Cecile live in/near Little Rock. I'm very worried. It's doubtful either will be able to contact any of us, but I think just leaving our thoughts on their blogs, this blog, at the Wild Onion or on your own blogs will matter. The words will be carried by the wind and they'll know we're thinking of them.

I love you all and know you will be brilliant as always.

Suz XO

P.S. Even if you don't know Cecile or Bindi please leave a prayer or kind thought. I'm confident it will matter. Thank you. :)

Oh Suzanne....that is truly frightening...and to think a moment ago I was complaining because of the rain we are having here...its only a light drizzle..I feel ashamed....

You have such a big heart....I love your line; The words will be carried by the wind and they'll know we're thinking of them.

I will say a prayer for their safety, and that of their home....

Hey Suzanne,
Thanks for alerting us. It doesn't seem to matter where we are in this great big world of ours; there's always some bad weather happening somewhere, sometime.
We pray for those all who might be affected by the tornadoes.

Dear Suze,
Am here just to let you know we are Ok! We had heavy rain and thunderstorms, other than that everything is fine...
I had a busy day here...just cleaning and unpacking with a *sugar high* baby :))
Hope Cece is fine too...
I have to call my In laws since they had flood alert..but their house is in top of a big hill... :))
Sweetie, Thanks for your prayers and good thoughts for us all...
I am off to check on Debbie and Cece...
Have a good night...
please take good care of you....

Bindi, just to know you're okay matters. Do you think Cece is okay? You live there. You know. All I see is what is on the news and it looks horrible. I'm grateful you're okay.

I love you!

Lavinia,

Thank you for your kind words and prayers. It's funny because I was thinking the same thing today. I was complaining about all the housework and yard work and then realized...I have a house, I have a yard. I felt humbled.

You are such a dear soul and I'm so happy we met. You fit so nicely into the fabric of this blog. Don't ever leave because you would be impossible to replace.

Love you dear ~ hope you had a beautiful day.

Suze,
I have not been able to get internet all day so have just got your news. I see Bindi is ok, but will send out positive thoughts and prayers for Cece.

We had good news on Mr. Big, his heart is fine, did not have to have any stents or angioplasty!! He is home now resting. Sorry, I did not get to say anything before now, heavy rain and no service.

Love you,
Gig

Suzanne said...

Mark,

Well Bindi's okay, that's a good sign. Now we just need to hear from Cecile. They go into their neighbor's basement shelter, so know I won't hear from her until they emerge. Ugh. I've had such an odd feeling all day. But I'm hopeful. I just feel scared for some reason. Probably because Cece is completely afraid of spiders, webs, and anything that resembles dust!!! We'll know soon.

XO

Suzanne said...

Gig, Gig, Gig...Everything's alright with the world when you show up. Why? I have no clue! What is, is. So glad Mr. Big did better than expected. I hope you are having a relaxing evening. Well, you should probably be sleeping! That's pretty relaxed! We'll chat when you're better restest, less stressed and have some time. Yes, pray for Cece. I'm worried you know. I'm so grateful Bindi's okay. One down, one to go!

Love you sweetie. So glad Friday actually came and went!

restest...is that actually a word?

Suzanne said...

If it is, I'd like to get me some, cuz I'm exhausted!

CIELO said...

Oh my, I didn't know they live in that area... I will certainly lift my voice in prayer for both of them, and thank you, my friend, for everything you did to make my carnival a success.... I was finally able to post about your beautiful award... what an honor to be called "your friend".... come and see! And yes, get ready to be featured on my blog next month.... I can hardly wait to see your beautiful garden.... Everyone will love it!

Have a great weekend!

Hugs

Cielo

I've been off the internet for a few days (grrr, stupid providers!), but my thoughts are with Cece and Bindi - glad to know Bindi is safe and well.
