TYPHOON Party!!!

I know, this sounds super weird, but that's just what we call them.  We are having our first typhoon of the season here on our little island of Okinawa.   So here is what we do. 
First we get sand bags, and put them by all the doors. Clean up all of the outside stuff and secure anything that is loose.
Then we stock up on much needed things like water, food, gas, batteries, flashlights, etc.
By the time I am all done with this. (yes, me by myself yet again for another storm) I decide to order some yummy pizza (thank goodness we have pizza hut here on base)
We of course went and rented some movies, have board games ready to go, have reading matrial on hand.
And now we just wait and pray that the storm goes by us with out doing any damage to anything on the island.   So I guess this "typhoon party" is pretty much spending time with your family. I know most people bake goodies and get lots of snacks. I baked banan bread (almost all gone) and cookies (GONE) the other day.   I am hoping to get some crafting in while we are stuck here in the house. Wish us luck!
