anyone in tx?
I'm sooo scared of this hurricane. My husband is in wyoming working so it's just me and my 2 kids. They're saying it's going to be a category 4 when it lands and I'm just scared. He's been telling me to calm down the last 2 days I've mentioned it and he just text me and said "I'm really worried about this storm" I want to pack my stuff and drive to wyoming right now...it's a 17 hour drive. But then I'm afraid I'd be stuck and wouldn't be able to get home bc of flooding and I don't want my daughter to miss school. I'm just terrified. I'm crying right now lol.

Harvey is on the ground! Category 4 130 MPH winds. Stay safe everyone!!
I live in Houston and have been through many hurricanes. Do your research for yourselves on the area you live in. If it had a history of flooding then the safest thing would be to evacuate. But if you live in a area that has no recent history of flooding and they have said it will hit Corpus, Houston will see heavy rain. Just use your best judgement. Many times we worry about things way more than necessary. I'm praying for everyone but Staying put for now.
I've been keeping tabs on it! We're expecting 40+mph winds and anywhere from 3-7 inches in rain which isn't too crazy but It floods really bad here. The base I live on is already shutting down high flood areas because someone got swept away a few months ago and they never found him ? I hope everyone stays safe!
I'm already stressed lol but I bought some beer might as well enjoy myself cause there isn't a damn thing I can do!
I live near port lavaca/Victoria right on the coast and we evacuated. If it would have stayed a cat 1 or less we would have stayed but evacuated south. It's was a mandatory evacuation for my county. It's sucks so bad not knowing if you are going to come home to a house or not. My dad stayed in his house because he's hardheaded so I'm really nervous for him. If you are going to evacuate do it soon!
Yeah I knew it was going to be atleast category 3. Fingers crossed to all the BB ladies who are in this. They expect it to hit around 2 am tonight.
I'm just going to ride it out at my moms. She's in Montgomery. There is no use in me fighting all the people trying to go north and be stuck on the highway during the storm. I'm worried but I feel safer with other people..wish I wasn't sick and wasn't so dang tires lastnight or I'd be at my sisters house in Oklahoma right now!! Ugh
I'd leave if I were you. No point in risking your safety over your daughter missing a few days of school. If you leave now you might get caught in some traffic but the more you drive the further away you'll be from the storm. Whatever you end up doing I hope you and your kids stay safe. Good luck.
I think if you live near Houston the worse you need to worry about is flooding. Thankfully my house is high enough it doesn't flood. I'm more concerned with bring 27 weeks pregnant, with 2 young kids and the power going out. But we're preparing by finishing off the ice cream in the fridge.
I've been in hurricanes a lot also, I'm just scared because I've never been alone. It's 6 hours, I didn't go. I was too tired to drive that far lastnight and now it's out of the question. I don't think I'm going to get anything bad here just a lot of rain but it's still scary.
Austin here too and when I saw rain and cooler temps I was excited until I realized it was a hurricane coming in. I'm not worried about here in Austin at all but my son was supposed to move to Pelican Island this weekend to get ready to start his freshman year at A&M Galveston. He's staying 30-40mins north of Houston right now with his dad, so I'm definitely worried about him! I imagine A&M will cancel check in for this weekend but we don't officially find out until noon today.
Im so sorry your going through this. Ill definitely be praying for yall. We just went through this with Hurricane Matthew. I would leave if you feel uncomfortable. Especially if they say evacuate. Also if you do evacuate, when you come back make sure that you have cash. If the power is out, debit and credit won't work. Also bring a cooler and get a lot of ice on the way home before you get back. Finding ice was one the hardest things when we got back. Also make sure you have water, flashlights and batteries. Also you can get a jump box for your car. Most of them now have USB ports so you would be able to charge your phone.
as a Floridian who has dealt with hurricanes my whole life, you need to get out of potential flooding areas and take shelter. Take this very seriously! It's too late for you to evacuate now. If you were going to, you should have left yesterday or the day before. If you leave now you'll be stuck on the road when it hits. Don't worry about school. It will most likely be cancelled for several days. They do this to allow people time to get home and stuff. School is the least of your worries!
My sister and a lot of my family are in Galveston surfside and Houston. We're in San Antonio now but all of my family stayed they are just taking shelter because no one has said to evacuate. I would have left already if I lived in surfside or Galveston. I think it's going more towards corpus. Houston will see lots of rain and wind. Here in San Antonio we're just expected to have tropical storm weather and lots of flooding. Everyone in Texas stay safe! But I'd say this if you're going to leave go now before the roads are ridiculously clogged
I'm in central Texas but still in the path of the storm; it's not supposed to be as bad here but we have a "high possibility" of tropical storm level wind an rain. I'm not really sure what to expect because I'm from somewhere that doesn't storm. I have an aunt in Houston and a brother in San Antonio so I really hope they're okay because I know it's going to be a lot worse there ?
3 surrounding towns schools are all closed but my daughters isnt!
I know I'm really tempted. My mom told me I could come to her house but she's 30 minutes closer to the storm.. my sister lives in Oklahoma I'm contemplating getting in my car and going. .
They haven't told my town to evacuate if they did I wouldn't not think twice. Im just nervous only being 45 mins away from Houston.
I mean idk if I'm in the direct path but I'm 45 minutes from Houston which is supposed to take a good hit
Ive moved around a lot but lived in Texas the majority of my life. My parents were storm chasers growing up so I've been in so many hurricanes I've just never been alone. I've never had kids in a storm.
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
Science!
My friend posted this on facebook last night and said her kids were asleep within minutes. It's a song that scientists created to help people fall asleep. I was skeptical but I thought what the hay, I'll try it out. I didn't bank on Dh falling asleep, but both him and lo were asleep by minute 2. And lo slept six straight hours. ?
Starting TWW. Anyone else?
I had a stillborn daughter at 38 weeks this passed Nov. This is my second month ttc. (Last month we only tried for like two weeks though). My last and only pregnancy, I got pregnant the first month of ttc so I hope it's quick this time again.
Why Are Many Women Unaware of Their Own Anatomy?
the amount of women who are clueless about their own anatomy is so sad and shocking. a lot of the women are older than me and have more children then I do 😳
now I understand that everyone has their own opinion on the topic and grown adults can do whatever they want with their bodies but to deny facts and make up false statements about your own anatomy when it comes to your unborn child is just so disappointing.
