Schools in our area are already closed for Monday and Tuesday because of the impending weather. When schools are closed, Linda usually does not teach her classes. The gyms keep it simple by canceling classes if schools don't open due to weather. This time, only one of her three gyms is going by the rule. Why? Because it's not even raining yet! Members wouldn't be too happy if it was totally dry in the morning and their favorite class (ie Body Combat followed by Body Pump!) were canceled. Some of the gyms do a great job telling members what is going on through FB, Twitter, emails and recorded messages on their hot line, in other gyms the member has to call the front desk. This means the poor front desk person will be going crazy in the morning fielding calls. Since Linda has an 8:30 and 9:30 a.m. class, she'll most probably be teaching... but she is thinking maybe not her afternoon classes.

| Linda needs one of these unitards |
We feel prepared for a loss of electricity with enough food, water, ice and candles. The only thing she did not prepare for is the chance Chim and I can't go outside to pee if it's a hurricane. Neither one of us go out in a drizzle, let alone gale force winds and driving rain. She is going to stop before church tonight and get pee-pee pads. Chim has never used one before, but he'll figure it out once she covers the floor and shuts him in the downstairs bathroom for an hour. He still squats to pee because I guess he does not know he is a boy dog.

OK, Linda is back home from church. Target wasn't even crowded, but it's because everyone already cleared out the important stuff.

| No bread |
There were a few crushed loaves of white bread left and a bag of Spicy Hot Dorito chips. She didn't take a picture of the water aisle, but it too was bare.
 |
| No Plates |
Hardly any paper plates or napkins were left. I guess people won't be able to wash their dishes so it makes sense to have paper plates, right? Same with napkins. If there is a problem with water, you'll go around with sticky hands.
And her favorite... No Donuts!! There were only two bags left on the entire shelf. Folks need their donuts during emergencies. Other things like OJ, milk, and tuna were also just about gone, but people were giving Linda very strange looks as she was taking pictures and she was afraid someone would call security.
