Well! Another new low.
Here's the weird thing. Yesterday, I ate twice, AND had spaghetti (shrimp scampi) for dinner. And the weigh-in today, instead of being first thing in the morning, was after being at work briefly, and grocery shopping. Kes CAN eat wheat???
So I haven't had anything to eat today (5 PM now, 26 hours from yesterday's dinner), and while there's an empty feeling in my belly, I don't find anything appetizing, so I may just fast through the night. A good friend brought me a 3 lb. slab of pork belly and 2 bags of dried hibiscus flowers (great tea!). So now I have to decide what to do with the pork. There are some AMAZING recipes for the belly meat, but I remember being at my grandparents' farm and having 'sow-belly' bacon for breakfast. Basically, uncured streaky bacon... YUM! Whatever I decide, there will be cracklings!
Keeping an eye on hurricane Irma...it's still unknown what direction it will take. I bought a portable litter box and small cat food containers in case I have to get my fur babies out of danger. For myself, I've been a prepper since 2012, and I have plenty of preps. At home, I could last about a year with no groceries. If I have to bug out, I have plenty to choose from. I also have 3 alternative cooking methods, at least 3 lighting methods, and as long as my car doesn't get flooded out, a way to keep my phone charged. I have a huge, round Jacuzzi tub in my master bath, which should hold about 100 gallons of potable water. I also have 4, 10 gallon jugs I can fill. Clean water: covered!
I've had offers of shelter in the mountains of Georgia, Alabama and South Carolina. All viable options, except for the cats. If it's going to make landfall as a CAT3 or less, I will stay here. Anything higher (or closer), I will head north and west with the cats. I can ride it out in my car if I have to. I have a full tank of gas, plus a 5 gallon jug in reserve. Traffic heading north out of Florida has been heavy-ish on the Interstate already, so I will stick to back roads if I do scram.
So yeah, I'm skinny, prepared, and alert. *smirk* Still, any good thoughts, wishes and prayers are appreciated!
Wishing all my buddies and followers peace and and success.

Thanks, HM. I will update as it gets closer. Right now my local forecast looks fairly mild, and the 'hit' appears to be forecast for late Sunday through early Tuesday.

Given how prepared you seem to be... sounds like we can rely on you to monitor the situation closely and make sensible decisions. Take care!

Wish everyone could be as well-prepared as you are. And hope you don't need to leave. We visited New Orleans a couple of years ago and learned a lot about Katrina, and the chaos that followed...

Thanks, everyone! I'm feeling calm about the impending storm. I don't think I will be in a direct impact zone. I'm updating in a new journal for today.
