My kids don't listen!

Sitting here watching How the West Was Won (for at least the 6th time but I love it) while I work on another knitting project.  Jenni stuffed a t-shirt for a pillow and now she's decided to go visit a friend near Freshwater Bay.  (out in the country)

I've been watching the winds blow the tall trees in the next block over and like everyone, curious to see if we're going to have a bad storm.

Our conversation:

Jenni: I'm heading over to visit a friend at Freshwater Bay.
Me:  Do you really have to do that? Can't you stay home while it looks like a storm is coming?

Jenni:  I'm not going to sit around here waiting for something that hasn't happened and might not happen.
Me:  Well, that's a hell of an attitude.    What if a tree falls across the highway? I don't think I raised you right.

Jenni:  Yeah, well you can put that on my tombstone.

Nobody listens to me.
