Because this is not about Mormonism, I thought I would post it in Spirit Paradise. The latest Coffee With Kish is a brief update about my storm preparation.
Came home to prepare for Milton. We are in the path of the storm but not near the coast. This is a brief update and a shoutout to Steve Pynakker, who has evacuated to find shelter. All Mormons and Mormon-interested people of Florida . . . heck, all Floridians, I wish us all luck!
Title: Bracing for Hurricane Milton
"I have learned with what evils tyranny infects a state. For it frustrates all the virtues, robs freedom of its lofty mood, and opens a school of fawning and terror, inasmuch as it leaves matters not to the wisdom of the laws, but to the angry whim of those who are in authority.”

We can't take farmers and take all their people and send them back because they don't have maybe what they're supposed to have. They get rid of some of the people who have been there for 25 years and they work great and then you throw them out and they're replaced by criminals.

Thank you for the update on Steven. I was hoping he’d be able to evacuate to a safer place. Our family had a family reunion planned in Orlando for Wednesday. Our older daughter will be weathering the storm in Orlando and younger daughter in Brooksville (a bit of anxiousness there). Hubs and I wound up in Orange Beach, AL for a few days instead. Hubs brother and family went back home which is well away from the storm. I had thought of trying to do a meetup with Steven, but that will have to wait. He doesn't know me anyway, he just knows my friends. Entrusting our daughter into the Lord’s hands. Hoping she can get back home okay too as she lives on the barrier island. I’d welcome prayer on both our daughters’ and significant other’s behalf.
Okay. Now I’m gonna listen to CWK.
Adding… absolutely everything we had planned changed. I had also hoped to meet up with someone else I really wanted to meet up with, whose name I won’t disclose. It seems it wasn’t the Lord’s will at this time. We had also stopped by a friend’s church on Sunday unannounced, and turned out he was in MN for his own family reunion. He was the interim pastor who introduced us to expository teaching www.thbg.org . God is sovereign and I am not. I think I’ll pour my heart out to him once more.

When hubby’s mother passed away and his dad moved back to where we live, we were like, “Yes, we never have to go back to south Florida again.” Well, darling daughter moved there, so had to eat those words.
I must have missed a video about where your coffee mug was, but see you’ve been reunited with it again.
