shadowkatHurricane Ian after stomping all over poor Southern Florida (Aunties are okay, however and didn't get any of it - yippee), is headed towards the South Carolina Coastline as a Category 1 Hurricane. But Momma is going to be okay - it's going around her and making landfall in Charleston.
She said that her area is on the outer outer rim of it, and will most likely just get 5-6 inches. So they are not evacuating. (If they were - they'd be in the middle of it any how.)
We are relieved. Also feeling very grateful that this did not happen two weeks ago during the funeral - because if it had, we'd have had to reschedule everything - which would have been a nightmare. The Universe caught us a break on that one. Or maybe my father had a bit of bargaining power.
My Uncle - the Priest - is also okay.
Speaking of my uncle, my mother thinks my father may have had a final say in his funeral after all - and possibly changed his mind regarding having my uncle preside over it.
ME: You think he came to his senses, finally?
Mother: Maybe.
Me: Maybe he saw my uncle's homily and decided - uh, let's not?
I have no idea what was in my uncle's homily - but when he described it to mother, she was kind of leery of it. We never heard it - either way.
