Good Morning Everyone! We've had one storm go through, and they are predicting another to hit by ten central time. That gives me just enough time to do my study, and nothing much else. As soon as I'm done posting and read, whatever I can, before ten, I'm off. The computer goes off, and unplugged. Like it, or not, tornado season is upon us. On with the Study.
