April 10, 2009 while working in our workshop today filling orders, packing up all the awesome soap base and fragrance oils we heard a weather alert about severe weather headed our way...we hurried to finish as the black clouds covered the sky causing the room to turn night time dark...the wind picked up...the rain came down so hard we couldn't see the house across the street...all the while the large sized hail was bouncing on the sidewalk...I told Michael to get off the phone with Gerdie Baby, as I hurriedly ran to get the camera to take pictures...all turned out fine here...however, while watching news channel 5 (my absolute favorite) the stories about the deadly tornado and mass destruction broke my heart...We just want to let our Tennessee neighbors know that they're in our thoughts and prayers...one just doesn't realize just how blessed they are until something like this happens.
