This picture AMAZED me. This is the road we travel into the Katy/Houston area...I-10. This is about about 7-8 miles from Katy:

Some of the TV reports from Katy show a LOT of flooding. Hope your friend is safe...and DRY!![]()

SO true; certainly not a "morning person" after a hurricane! For the first time in 3 nights I SLEPT WELL...until NOON!
No alarm set since either rain or phone calls have taken care of that the entire weekend but neither one this morning!
23 inches but for the first time in 3 days the forecast says 50% instead of 100% chance of rain!
School has been cancelled today through Thursday; stores are running out of food. DH went to Subway for lunch and they have 12 loaves of bread left and then they'll close. Supply trucks from Houston can't get through. One of the roads to DD's house out of town is washed out; DH had to go the "long way around" to get to her house. I'll get back with crop answers after I get some breakfast/lunch
but to answer a few questions...DD and family are safe/sound in their home with the giant dog
; DH and I are safely tucked away in our home with the stray dog.
We've named him Snoopy for now and he's content just sleeping and staying dry. Roof leaks have stopped
and just a light rain. DH said wind was crazy this morning; blew his truck around more than once on the way to DD's house. Know of at least one friend whose home was flooded in the Katy area; she and her children are here in Bellville with her mother. Glad to see Jeff is back and Diane will be later...she spent the weekend in Maine and is at her new job this morning. Later...

Wow! I saw them pulling a trucker out of his huge tractor trailer truck that he had tried to drive through the water. The water was up to the window of his cab! They came with a boat and pulled him out. He must have had a very important load to try to drive through that!Glad you all are okay and you had a good night's sleep

oh man sounds like its going to be a huge clean effort after all the water has gone
This shirt speaks to me on a spiritual level.
I texted her, will have to wait until my next break to see if she has replied. . .
Does it begin with a letter between A and K? I'm just going down the list on the map....
Design a Tee? The Dino store at T-Rex? or Marketplace Fun Finds?
Basin, Build a Dino or Design a Tee?
and I have not been to DS since they changes it all around so I just know the old part of Market place haha
It's from the BASIN...a must stop for me with every visit and it's in the same spot it's been since this was "Downtown Disney" with Pleasure Island.
Love their bath salts and cute little bars of soap. Super "stocking stuffers" at Christmas!

Hoping she's not effected! Just an FYI, don't be surprised if she doesn't answer right away. Cellphone service is "hit and miss" and many areas have no service at all. Let us know what she says!

Park? DHS?New one for the new week...this may take a lot of clues for the location only...I have NO idea what this is!

And I was sure it was candy!
She did not text me back but I saw on instagram she posted a picture of her flooded backyard. It looks like the water is not even close to being up to her house. She commented on there that she is safe!
