I am still here to, bearly, lol. Limbs are still falling yet as I am writing this. I have not been to work at all yet, no work for tomorrow either.
More bad news, another front is on it's way here. Said it will be here Thursday night or Friday morning. This time it will be sleet and snow. We have had enough!!!!!!
By the way, I live south of Tulsa.
I have no clue at this time how in the heck that I am going to get all those huge limbs out of mom and dads yard yet. To make matters worse, there are still some hanging over mom and dads house that could fall any time. Plus there are a couple hanging over my trailer that could fall at any time as well. I know that mom and dads house could stand it better than this little travel trailer. But I still don't want one of them big ones landing on their house either. My drive way is completely covered with downed trees right now. Thank goodness my daughter is borrowing my truck right now.
A limb did go threw the roof of my daughters house. It went into her bathroom. And another tree that they thought was going to fall into the house went the other way instead.
Our power has been flickering off and on all day. We hear a pop, snap and then wonder where the limb is going to crash. I am waiting on one to go threw my roof.
I take it from some of the answers that a couple of Seniors live kind of close to me. That is great if that is the case.
If I disappear again, you will know that I lost either my power again or the cable or both.

We finally got a break. I'm in Oklahoma and 30 miles from here more than 160,000 homes without electric and will be 7-10 days before they get any. I was wondering about Sapphire, Siddhartha and Isadora! It's really bad because big trees are falling into homes!! Old, old trees!! It's a shame! My son is on his way to my house they live in Tulsa!

I have been watching the news and I too have been worried about the different YA seniors that live in those areas.
I think it would be a good idea if anyone of YA friends that live in those areas tell us they are safe.
EDIT Ndnquah.....glad to know you are okay when I saw the news about Oklahoma I thought about you..... said a little pray for you.....

I heard that in those icy areas that 1 in 3 are without power.
I think they have more on their minds right now than answering question on Q & A.

Horrible storms. Say a prayer for her and all the others.

Talked to her on the phone, she is safe. Not to worry.
