Oh my dog ! We had a wild night with the tornado sirens going off twice during the night and the weather radio constantly alerting. We even had to get in our safe room when one went about a mile or so to the east of us. Sadly 16 people died in Arkansas last night and many more were injured due to the tornado's - our hearts and prayers go out to the families who lost loved ones. A little town about 20 miles to the south of us was just about wiped away....even sadder was that little town was hit by a tornado 3 years and 2 days ago that did the same thing. Mom says spring time is the most beautiful time of year and yet it also likes to remind us that it can all be taken in away in a moment so we must live and enjoy every day like it is our last. Now where were we during all this time - snoozing of coarse - apart from when Mom called us into the safe room. Mom says she is so thankful storms don't bother us and she is constantly amazed that the Dweeb isn't scared of them considering he is scared of just about everything else in the world.

We thought of you immediately this morning when Mom first heard the news on the TV about the deadly devastation in Arkansas. We were so happy to receive that early comment from you so we knew you were all OK. We had a few threats here yesterday too, but luckily nothing bad in our immediate area, just to the south of us. Thank goodness you are all fine.

OMD OMD So Glad to hear from YOU... we saw on the news last night that your area was being hit by tornadoes and we were WORRIED about YOU... We are thrilled that you are SAFE... butt soooooooooo very much sorry about those who lost lives and homes.
ReplyDeleteTornadoes are SO much WORSE than Hurricanes... beclaws there is not much warning. SOMETIMES... no warning at All... SCARY and HORRID.
Thank dog you are all okay! I feel bad for those poor people in Arkansas...tornadoes seem downright terrible and scary. Here's to staying safe and enjoying the good weather when you have it!

The weather is really pounding down on us. I thought of you last night when they said on the weather that this morning we were going to get the storms that had hit Arkansas only in a lighter form. Stay safe my friends

We are glad you are okay. Yes, tornadoes are scary and we fear for those affected from them. Mom came from a place that had tornadoes but she never had one at her house, just nearby and little damage. We cross our paws for comfort and rebuilding!

So glad to hear all of you are safe. We don't do weather at all well.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you guys are all safe, but oh those poor folk who have lost so much.
ReplyDeleteOh no, so sorry you were so close and had that scare. Our hearts go out to those affected. We are sure glad you are okay. Stay safe.
ReplyDeleteWe were worried about u. We checked your blog as soon as heard about the tornado.
ReplyDeleteso glad you are safe and sound! We didn't realize you live in Arkansas
ReplyDeleteThat's so scary. We haven't heard the news this morning, so we didn't know. We are so glad it missed you and you're safe. But feel sorry for those peeps and their pets who have to start all over again.
ReplyDeleteXXXOOO Bella & Roxy
OMD! We are so glad you are safe! We heard about the tornados and thought of you, so glad to hear that you have a safe room! But you slept through it really? Love Dolly
ReplyDeleteI thought about you guys when I heard the news this morning. Glad you are all ok, but sorry you had to endure such a scary night. I feel badly for those whose lives have been tragically changed forever.
ReplyDeleteHappy to hear that Denny isn't afraid of the storms. Oreo is the same way! Fireworks, storms, no big deal, but everything else...very scary :)
Hope you have a calm, peaceful night.
Oh Dearest Cowspots!
ReplyDeleteI have been worried about you and I have not had use of internet. So happy to hear that you are all right.So sad about the neighboring towns that have been hit. Prayers to all. So proud of Denny not being scared last night. Tail wags and treat wishes to you, that the storms are gone. So happy to hear that you are safe!!
So glad you guys are alright, I was worried when I saw the news this morning. I guess we really have no reason to complain about our rainy cold spring.
ReplyDeleteOh, I am soooo glads you guys are safe and sound! That was one horrible night fursure. Gosh, my heart goes out to all the people there who had to go through these awful storms. Keepin' them in our thoughts and prayers!!!
ReplyDeleteYou guys take care of your Moms and stay safe and don't forgets the treaties and margaritas in the safe room....just sayin'
Kisses,

Crikey .... I'm so glad you are ok. Those tornadoes are scary, scary things, aye? We heard about it all the way down here in Australia. Those poor, poor people that lost their lives and homes and everything. And all the animals. What terrible times!! Stay safe .... please.
ReplyDeleteWell done Denny for not being scared ..... I would have been terrified!
Mom told us about the tornado and all the damage it has caused. We are very grateful that you guys are safe and sound.
ReplyDeleteWally & Sammy
Wez are juzt so relieved you's all Ok. Our hearts and prayers are with all those effected. Just tragic xxxoxxxx
ReplyDeleteMollie and Alfie
We are SO glad you're safe! We were worried about our Blogville furends when we saw it on the TVs...
ReplyDeleteStay safe, the weather folks say you may have more storms today. I grew up in IL and know how scary the sirens are. I'd probably be hiding in the safe room all night! Glad the Cowspotdogs aren't scaredy cats, it saves them a lot of stress. I'm sorry about all the damage and lost lives, tornados in my opinion are worse than hurricanes and even earthquakes (we have experienced both).
ReplyDeleteWe've seen the destruction on our TV and feel so sad for everything in the tornando's path. I hope everyone is getting what they need right now with support, food, shelter, and love.
