Going crazy and then some .....

unless we get a call DH & some other crew members from the Fire Departement will be going down to the LA area. DH informed me about it last night; needless to say I am uneasy about it. He just came home from a 48 hour shift and will be leaving early tomorrow morning again. Guess what he is doing? Instead of spending some time with me he hopped on the bulldozer to get more work done. The neighbor let him have it til after TG.day and now DH is worried he won't get it all done because of him leaving. What he doesn't understand is he won't either way. He'll have to borrow it again and again and again. So much to do, it can't be all done in the next few hours. Arrrgh, the things I want to do to him right now. Men, they just don't get it sometimes
I am hoping for the winds to stay down and they all the crews end up just sitting around, but ya know how this usually goes! I keep watching the news and weather reports praying it won't get worse. And even if they are going down there I am hoping nothing major happens this time. Too many people have lost their homes already this year. I can really do without another disaster this Holiday Season. Looks like this Thanksgiving will be without DH. Kinda weird, really weird. He has worked on the Holidays before, but I always go down to the fire station and have dinner there. Last year I cooked the entire Turkey dinner.
Looks like I'll stick with our original plan and visit with friends (who live 2 hours from us) on T.day. I don't really want to, thinking if something happens I should be more reachable.
I am already thinking about what I need to have ready just in case I get "the call" , overnight bag, phone numbers, leaving a key with the neighbors, so they can take care of the dogs. Arrghh, I can't stand this, I am driving myself nuts while he is riding around on this stupid bulldozer.
I know it's not really any different than him going to work and fighting fires, but it seems different. Gotta stop doing this to myself!
