if this log rolls over we'll drown
(my town)Texas - Students and faculty members were evacuated from a my kids - ISD intermediate school when a nearby creek began flooding out of its banks Wednesday morning.
yup it's true . major flooding in and around where i live. schools are and have been evacuated. my kids school wasn't one of them, but soulman went and got her anyhow. it aint easy to forget once you've been in a flash flood. not to mention - in my case -- a few - in a vehicle - and my house - a couple as well. so. when i saw the news, i told hubby - cancel her appointment, and go get her. not that he hadn't had that plan on his mind already - but now that i was in agreement - without his suggesting it-- it was a sealed deal, and off he went.
at this point , it isn't raining anymore... our house is fine, and the soul clan is fine. in fact the two of them, and soulkid 2 , are at sonic, grabbin some lunch -- they slay me. if it was me - i would have got my kid and come straight home-- them? they went to home depot, and sonic. don't ask. i gave up tryin to figure out their thought process... which is obviously much the same. and totally not the same as mine.
oh well. they survived their journey. and even brought me lunch :)) gotta give em credit for livin life right? livin on the safe side doesn't always pay off. they came in , all smiles.
and what i am i doin? sittin here pissed off cuz my phone won't work, and i can't talk to my dr. to get the results of my chest x-ray. that's what i'm doin. she called this mornin - i missed the call. now my phone won't work to call back. aint life grand?
catch you folks latah.
happy days peeps-

doc finally got thru - x-rays are good. "quit smokin, and keep on the meds/inhalers."
nothin i didn't expect to hear. if i had a dollar for every time i heard "quit smokin" . . .

No flooding and good x-ray results. Not bad news in one day. And lunch delivered. What service!
you bet -- i even took a shower ! on the road to recovery. i just may expose myself to clothing and the outside world tomorrow. wouldn't that be somethin? i haven't left my house since friday after the dr. :(( course i haven't wanted to either. not that i 'want to' now. but i think i need some real air in my lungs. couldn't hurt right?
g'night c.

Oh, and the flooding south of Waco was Something Else! Killeen took the worse of it, over 13 inches, and a 19yr girl died trying to cross a road covered in water!
Gerogetown got 15 1/2 inches...Waco, 11, Temple, 11...
Just lots of flooding.
Hubby & I are fine though. He put in large drains about 5 yrs ago so we don't have the flooding Others do. Tornado watches but no warnings...I see you had a tornado in downtown Dallas last night!
Stay safe! 'Tis the Season!

glad y'all are ok.. yup- we had FIVE of em touch down in our area-- not in our city tho. i think dallas was the closest to us. we got high winds and some flooding-- but no personal damage to selves or property. we got lucky. a couple years ago was a different story. house and cars took some hits on a couple occasions. perhaps a re-post or two are in order? :))
anyhow-- i think there was only one death out here- but i may have missed somethin - hopefully no more than that.
take care bebe`
missed ya!

I hope you did talk to the doctor and all is well.
