Pictureless Thursday: Traveling in Tornados

Hi friends!

Today I'm taking the day off from work because I've been asked to film a testimonial video for Medi Weigh-Loss Clinics. Some of you probably don't know my story. I was pretty overweight for a long time after I gave birth to my daughter; I tried everything and eventually entered a contest through our local newspaper. I WON! Part of the prize package included 12 weeks with Medi (NOT the same as MediFast, they're different and I don't know much about them). 

I'll tell you the whole story one day; I'm short on time right now which is why I'm not able to do photos today either. 

My mom and daughter are coming with me because the shoot is in the city where my brother's family lives, so we're meeting my sister-in-law and nephew for lunch first. I'm going to ask my mom if she can take some photos during my shoot so I can give you a behind-the-scenes look!

Please send prayers my way for safe travels; there are tornado watches all throughout both my area and where I'm headed, until the afternoon (so at least our drive back should be okay!). I really don't want to drive two hours in torrential downpours with tornado warnings, but I made a commitment so I'm going to stick with it.

Hope you all have a great day, everyone!
