Just got a call from Oldest saying they're on the way home.
"To Grandmom's?"
"Yes."
"Have you tried to call her and let her know you're coming?"
"I did, but it was busy."
"Do you have a key to her house?"
"No, sir."
"Well, she should be there, but if she's not, y'all just go around to the back porch. Are Jonathan and Rebecca on the bus with you?"
"Ahhhh, yeah, they're up at the front."
"Okeedoke, well, y'all be careful and I'll see you when I get home. Love you."
"Love you, too, Dad."
It's just precautionary--there's still no rain or wind at the moment, but I tell you what, getting a call like that out of the blue sure does put a kink in your innards.
Just called and made sure Granny was indeed there, and she is, which dekinked a section or two of the old alimentary canal.
I reminded her to make sure the kids get their homework done before turning on the television--because I'm just a control freak, you know.
