Good luck with the water.
Be careful when driving because we cannot see how deep the puddles are.

Parents are ok
 

My father emailed me a day or so after the TX storm.
They lost power for half a day and did fine. (brother-in-law is an
electrician who could have powered up the generator/s if necessary.)

Monday night father called -- this time from sister's house -- likely they ate
dinner there -- not sure.
Sister has been off work but brother-in-law is a foreman
so he gets called in on off days.

They are all safe ---- days and days of rain but not flooding.

My barometer is falling big time. That shows that a storm is close by. That is a good indicator. Barometers. BF:hug::hug::hug:

My sister yelled at me on phone because I told her to stop explaining
 

Dad and Mom lost most/all of their electricity because a neighbor's tree fell on
something (transformer) or maybe the transformer fell on the tree -- have no idea.

My father and I had already spoken and he and Mom were o.k. and
able to laugh about the situation.

=-=-=
Then my sis wanted to clarify what Dad said about what fell on what.
I told her I could not deal with specific details -- BRAIN NOT WORKING.

She got loud and insisted on telling me.
I yelled at her: STOP YELLING AT ME.

She must really hate me because she kept it up.

I cried after we hung up. Crying again now.

Sounds like she is really upset too. Its part of having these problems.

I know its hard but try blocking her out.
