I Wish I Were Home.

So as I got home from work today (still on the road actually) there was an explosion at the Silver Eagle Refinery by my house. At about 6pm an officer knocked on my door and said, "you need to leave your home." Fortunately I live close to family so I have some place to go. But I am not the only family member who lives in the evacuation area. So I am at my grandmother's house with 5 other people and 6 dogs. I am about ready to cry or jump out of my skin, or go north and get a room.

I can think of a million things I wanted to do today...and they all happen to be things to do at home tonight!!!

----Edit----
The mandatory evacuation was lifted at about 9pm so I went home. All is good. I get to sleep in my own bed tonight :)
