This kind of fit our board........

You were supposed to call in and say if you had a cat or a dog or nothing.
Well, we all kind of know that we all at least have a cat!

That kind of kills this question of the day, let me see if I can come up withone of my own!

Ummmmmmmmmm, Oh, I have one......


Do you like thunder/lightening storms
or are you afraid of them?

I can enjoy them as long as my husband is around. They sound really neat but if I am alone and I see lightning... EEPS!!!

Totally am enthralled by Thunderstorms. If I wake up in the mid of night hearing thunder rolling in & the wind picking up, I'll lay awake & watch outside. Nature is awesome!

The only thing I'm afraid of is losing power and not having air conditioning for a night in the summer!!!

I love storms. I used to stand in my backyard during storms and throw my arms in the air and pretend like I controlled them. My mom freaked out a lot hehe, but I was never struck by lightning. (knock on wood)

No way, they are scary, especially here in South Florida a.k.a The Lightning capital of the world. It sounds like lightning is hitting next to your house. I have a room with no windows, and I go there when there's lightning. Princess is brave she loves being next to the window. I hate when she does that, because I have to get close to the window to grab her and put her in the room. Gordo usually runs to the room.

I don't mind thunderstorms at all as long as I don't have to go anywhere. My cat Patsy HATES them. She gets so scared no matter what I do to comfort her. I've tried everything from trying to drown ot the sound with the TV Stereo to just holding her to try to keep her from having a panic attack and disapearing under the bed for 8 hours.

I like them okay as long as I don't have to go out in them and they are not a precursor to anything else like a tornado. However that depends greatly on how bad they are.

I like thunderstorms, provided I don't get caught unprotected in one. I love to watch from the house, and one night a lot of years ago, when there was a particularly noisy one in the middle of the night, Rob and I got up and jumped in the car to follow it. That was wild!


The only time I have not been comfortable during a thunderstorm was more than 20 years ago, when I was living in a ground level suite in a house with the land people upstairs, and they were away. I was completely alone in the house (well, except for Shasta, who wasn't happy either). It was the wee small hours, and I got up to visit Mother Nature, which took me from the bedroom into the hall, where I had a perfect view of the back yard, just as a bolt of lightning hit about six feet from the house. Not a happy camper, this kid, no sirree!
To say I was happy when it moved away would be the understatement of the century.


Other than that, no problem.

I LOVE them! Although, as a child, I was terrified of them...I was convinced that lightning was going to hit my house and cause it to burst into flames!
Now I love it when a good storm is raging and I can lay and bed and just listen...
