Some of the stories have been heartwarming. You stay safe there with Midnight. <br /><br />Thinking of you and all those affected, then there's the 1,000 dead in India and surrounding countries. And so on...<br /><br />Denise:-)Denise Covey https://www.blogger.com/profile/07106490051555233439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8681132888977525688.post-65536997486775145642017-08-30T09:36:40.597-05:002017-08-30T09:36:40.597-05:00Beaumont was really hit hard last night sadly.

Glad that so far you haven't been affected too much - <br /><br />Houston is going to be suffering badly for a long while, and the surrounding areas - I sincerely hope Louisiana won't bear too much brunt - but low land with large deltas don't help ... <br /><br />All the best for you - cheers HilaryHilary Melton-Butcherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17596532480645510678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8681132888977525688.post-67909170633104275652017-08-29T15:58:28.601-05:002017-08-29T15:58:28.601-05:00Thanks, Inger.

Ironically, one auntie and uncle escapted to their daughter in Houston during Katrina, now I wonder and hope things will not be terrible in New Orleans and that their daughter's family is OK in Houston. I pray that you and kittie will be safe.

So glad you seem to have made it through okay.<br /><br />I think some people see the headlines and after noticing that Harvey was downgraded to a "tropical storm" rather than a hurricane, think "Oh, well then. That's not so bad." I've read just enough in the papers to know that this "mere" tropical storm has still done a lot of damage.<br /><br />Here's hoping you and yours won't be affected too badly by all this.The Silver Foxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00730805376957629641noreply@blogger.com
