Miss A thought we were having lots of fun playtime in the closet... she was a trooper throughout the entire evening.
Call me crazy, but if we are having to seek shelter from the weather, then I want the pets there with us. I was running around the house like a crazy lady searching for Steve, all the while the storm sirens are sounding. We finally found him (hiding under A's crib) and then we headed to the closet. He immediately darted to the back corner and was fine. Jake (the pup) was a nervous wreck. He did not want to come into the closet and he was not a fan of the confined quarters. So, here we all are. I was on the phone with my dad because the satellite had gone out and Mr. was trying to look up weather stuff on his phone.
At some point we were in the closet and heard the TV come back on. The satellite was working again, so we immediately tried to turn on our local ABC channel to see what the current conditions were like. Yet, we could not find out if we were about to be swept away because they were still airing Dancing With the Stars.
Yes, WFAA Ch 8, was running a season finale of a dancing competition show versus important weather information. Explain that one to me.
The chief meteorologist tweeted later on in the night, making it seem as if this was a higher up network decision.
Either way, it seems foolish and irresponsible.
2 Additional Thoughts:
I'm so with you on the WFAA thing. I thought it was so irresponsible for them to keep airing it like there was no reason in the world not to be sitting in front of your TV. I mean, yes, we can find weather on other stations, but how many people sat there and just kept watching! Gah!
I was holed up in one closet with the dogs AND the cat. It was as fun as it sounds.
