Ike Is Coming
Posted On: 09/11/2008 19:07:35

Well... It's almost here. Possibly a cat3 or 4 when it hits. We haven't had a direct hit like this one is projected to be in 10 of 15 years. This could be very bad... but then again it could end up being nothing like all the others. I just hope we don't lose power... I just filled the freezer. That would be a lot of waisted food. You never really know what to prepare for. Most of the time they say it's gonna be this horrible thing and everybody freaks out and all we get is some rain... I dunno. I DO know that I'm glad I filled my tank yesterday. Every place is sold out now, even the little rinky-dink gas stations that are really just selling you 50%gas 50%water. And the grocerie stores... oh my. You would think that all these people have in their house is lunch meat. All of the water, toilet paper and canned goods are sold out. We have enough to live off of for at least a week without power and I haven't bought anything new. I think people just freak out too much.

I am only really worried beacause the condos I live in are 25 years old and not very sturdy. And I'm on the top floor. Maybe saturday morning I will wake up to a tree in my livingroom... who knows. But we are prepared and I know everything will be okay. Even if something does happen to our home, it's just our house. God won't leave us stranded. He never has. We will have a place to go.


Well... that's about it. Say a little prayer for those us here in Houston. Hopefully it wont be as bad as they expect.

Hi,  Sorry to hear that you are so close to the storm.  Went through that but the storm ended up being pretty much nothing (Hanna).  Of course, it was a tropical storm.  I'm hoping Ike weakens for you, but just read that they are not expecting that.  They say that there will definitely be loss of power.  If I were you, I would take my family in land and stay at a hotel Friday night.  Drive a couple of hours and stay at a hotel.  It sounds like a really dangerous storm.  One night at a hotel isn't all that expensive and you could turn it into a fun getaway time.  Saying prayers for you and your family.
