[LeeLee2U]

LeeLee,
I live in Northern California. So it would be San Francisco. We live 45 miles from the City by the bay. We get earthquakes supposedly all the time but, we don't always feel them. The campground I had the pictures of is about 15-20 miles out of San Francisco. There is a place in the park if the fog is clear you can see the Golden Gate Bridge. I am going to the city in October for this Oprah thingy so I will have a few pictures of the city to share with everybody.

We are keeping you and yours in our thoughts and prayers.

So you just get some "Good Vibrations" Huh???

Thank you. DH called and Dialysis has givn them their PURPLE armbands and we are being medically evacuated or told for dialysis patients to not drink fluids and try to get to dialysis by Mon.!!
We are planning on leaving in just a few hours. News just said Hurricane force winds will be felt all the way to Kingwood which is about 45 miles south of us!! They said a hurricane of this force has not been in this area since Alicia 25 years ago, YET they are not pushing evacuation too much right now. they are wanting people to shelter in place so the Galveston and real south of Houston evacuees can get through and then if power or homes are damaged THEN leave!!! Crazy huh?

Well since the curve is now heading toward Ms I think we are going to go on to OK. We haven't seen my father in law or DHs bro since his Moms funeral in Nov so at least he will get to visit. And they both live in the Mt next door to each other so hopefully we will get some good pics!!

Take care everybody! I hope to try to get on 1 more time before we leave!!!

Now THAT'S what I'm talkin bout!!!


Thank you!! That is where I'd like to evacuate too. Then I could go to Disney land and then all i'd have to worry about is earthquakes!!! I'll never forget my first visit to Ca. My GreatAunts house was overcrowded with collectibles and we hadn't been there an hour when a quake struck and things were rattiling and she was pushing things this way and that. Somehow she had a system to keep too much from breaking. Some things did break and I remember being scared and she NEVER stopped talking through the entire thing. There she was on the floor hands over her head.
" I'm so glad you guys came! You guys are going to have such a wonderfull time. I still love the South but Ca is a wonderfull state and oh yeah we are going to go to ..... house tonight and then we'll show ya'll our church and the innercity church and....etc........" (My Great Uncle was a Pastor there. First time I had to go through a FORTRESS of BarbedWire and Fences to get to church!!! )
Anyway....I really did like it there and wouldn't mind going again and....you know I still have some relatives there and my not really but we've always claimed to be cousin just moved there to Pastor a church hmmmmm.... I'm on my way!!!!!

It's supposed to hit Sat a.m. But yes we are in the Hurricane circle! What is crazy is they are not evacuating all of Galveston!! It's too late to get them all off so they are saying Shelter in Place!! They are expecting storm surges of at least 8 feet and Shelter In Place!!! You better believe if I lived there my bootie would be GONE!!!


O.k. I'll submit you to torture!!!

Hey Leelee

Your ca story sounds like a hoot...it reminds me of Mary Poppins when every hr, when a cannonball was shot and the maids would hurry around catching things real nonchantly

Seriously..Be safe

OB is probably gone again! Traffic is already getting REALLY heavy!
DH is in Dialysis and I'm staying home to get ready to go. i'm sending the boys to school so I can get more done and then hopefully we can leave by noon. There is already a gas shortage and overcrowding on the highways. There is like a nervous panicky feeling everywhere. They really aren't telling us much of anything. You can see on the tracker where it's going to hit yet they aren't evacuating anymore. They waited too late.
They evacuated so many for Gustav because of overreacting due to being scared because of Rita that they waited too late. I would rather be evacutated a gazillion times than be stuck that once and disaster happens. If it wasn't for DHs dialysis we would be gone!!!

when Rita hit we were in it. I was very blessed my apartment at the time had damage but was liveable. so many weren't that blessed! Now here comes Ike toward Galveston and we are just going to sit here????
You know how the school closed for Gustov on the BEAUTIFULL day?? Well all the school districts are closed all around us BUT NOt us!!! i guess they would be EMBARRASSED!!!
I'm trying to find back streets so w won't be stuck on the Hwy. We usually go 59 to I10 to Ms. what would usually be an 8 hour drive to my inlaws house would probably be a 20 or more by the time we get to leave so we are taking alternative routes!! I know I'm rambling so I'll get off. I am getting nervous. I don't have the pet carrier. It's at my Moms so I think if I can't get it before I leave we will just have to use Braetons Build a Bear one!!! I'll make use of that money yet!!!
I don't know what to do about Tylers poor fish. Put a bunch of food in there and pray over it I guess. I just hate to starve anything to death. Unless it would be a snake. I HATE Snakes and Rats and Mice!!!!
O.k. my nervous self is showing so I'll be leaving you now.
Love you all. I will try to get back on before we leave and hopefully when we get there. I'm going to put Sharky in charge of my gossip err... my news! Since I'm going to torture her by Text!!!

That a great idea to use Build a Bear Box

Yeah, just put a ton of food in the fish tank. Nothing more ya can do.

Looking forward to your textss

Be careful and drive safely

 

[LeeLee2U]

My mom called and my Dad is going to bring me the pet carrier!!! Now I just MIGHT get to Ok in one piece!!!

Around midnight last night I realized that I hadn't switched the clothes in the washer, so I went to do that. The house was dark. DH was still on the computer but the boys were in the other end of the house asleep. I switched the clothes and headed back thru the LR to my bedroom when...............................

SOMEBODY GRABBED MY ARM!!! I jerked away and they clawed my arms with thier sharp fingernails. As I screamed and slung my arm a tiny furry body went hurtling through the air to land on its 4 paws and LUNGE at me again!!!!

i get back in the bedroom heart pounding, adrenaline racing, muttering"smart cat huh??? Well guess who just got herself LEFT to meet IKE!!!!"

 

[LeeLee2U]

Quote didn't work but yes sharky you read that right!!!! No fluids!!!

But we are still planning on leaving if we can!!

You poor thing. Be sure to text Sharky (or you can text me!) and let us know how you are.

I had to laugh at the visual of you standing over the fish tank with your hands over it praying for the fish. At least you know if anything gets flooded, they will be able to swim.

So you just get some "Good Vibrations" Huh???

Hi Betsy! Glad you made your way over. I tried to make my post noticeable. Guess I didn't do such a good job. I will try better next time we have to start over.

I could never imagine you sitting there counting the minutes I have never heard of such a thing

You got me for another hour and a half.

God help me if I am on one of those political threads Those people get nasty

I am heading off to the store before StinkerBelle takes her nap.

I posted on the other thread but will do here too.

Both of you have an AWESOME trip and stay safe

Lots of pics of course

We will miss you!

Love Ya!

 

[LeeLee2U]

OMG......Bad cat


WOW, will he get fluids via an IV then.....

I thought you could only go 3 days without liquid

your kidneys is what process the poisons in your body so....when your kidneys fail then the poisons don't get taken out even for those that still can go lets see be dis friendly....Tinkle rotfl2: ) but DH has had failure for over 7 years and he does not Tinkle. (He would NOT like that TMI of himself. )
Dialysis not only cleans your blood but it take the fluid out too. thats why most dialysis patients are on a liquid restriction diet. the average is no more than 40oz of fluid a day. That counts ANY kind of fluid, jello, soups, drinks, butter, ice cream yogurt and even watery fruits like grapes, watermelon etc.... But that is very hard so most fight. WDW was a little scary because it was hot and DH stayed thirsty but once he discovered frozen lemonade it was a lot better. Though frozen liquids are still liquids (Yes I knew what ya'll were thinking!!! i may be blond but I'm not THAT Ditzy!!! ) you can make something frozen last longer and get away with a lot less than if you were drinking it. So ice chips and frozen things are good. We would all share a frozen lemonade and DH would only take maybe a fourth and it would last him several hours. We also try to keep hard candies to suck on.
O.k. Medical lesson over. Aren't ya'll glad!!!

You poor thing. Be sure to text Sharky (or you can text me!) and let us know how you are.

I had to laugh at the visual of you standing over the fish tank with your hands over it praying for the fish. At least you know if anything gets flooded, they will be able to swim.

Stay safe, Lee Lee.

This wasn't your cat? Where did she come from?

There ya are! Hi Betsy!

Thank you Tat!! I'll have Sharky text you my # as I'm being paged to hurry up!! Then if you'll text me I'll text you too!!

I had to share that with my sister. I could just see me annoiting the fish with my olive oil!..... Hmmmmm..... maybe that would work!!!



It was my spastic ADHD mentally challenged 3 month old KITTEN!!!!!!! I'm still mad at her but I'm letting her come!!!
After writing that story to ya'll I went in the Living Room and she was curled up in Braetons wheelchair giving me sad eyes!!!!

It worked cause I'm letting her come!!

 

[Leger13]

im outta here. See y'all later!!

 

[Tat2ddisneymom]
