Thanks, guys. If you listen to the local weather reports, we need to get into a fetal position and get ready for the end. Earlier they said it should rain about 10 to 12 inches this weekend, but that wasn't dangerous enough so now it is estimated at 30 to 40 inches. If that doesn't help their tv ratings, nothing will. I walked outside a few minutes ago and we were having a little spring shower. It wasn't sprinkling enough to open an umbrella, but I did see three leaves fall from one of the trees.
I will be safe and sound as I live in an area of Houston that doesn't flood. I have a standby generator that runs on natural gas, propane, or regular gas. I have 35 gallons of gas in the garage, 2 full propane tanks, and all the natural gas that I can suck out of the line. I've got a freezer full of meat, frozen pizzas, and ice cream. I've got 300 lbs of oak pellets for the pellet pooper. I have a whole-house water filter so I don't have to stand in line for water at the store. Everything is good so far. Fingers crossed.
Not trying to be flippant, but I am looking forward to the down time for the next few days. Kinda treating it as a small at-home staycation. It's been awhile since I don't have to go anywhere for the weekend. Thank you for your concerns. I'll keep you posted as to what's happening.
