Tornado's all around us



Recommended Posts

It is really bad right here where I live now, a tornado hit 8 miles from us! They are popping up all around us, some is just really bad storms with hail. Please send prayers for those being hit. I have no idea how much damage has been caused. Our sirens went off in our neighborhood, it has been pretty scary.

Thanks Paula, my area has now been cleared, I haven't heard what all towns have been damaged. It is in the Waxahatchie area right now.

We have lots of Texans on here, please check in and let us know you are alright.

Oh no!!! I just said a prayer for you and your husband and your property, and also for those who have been hit & all in your area!

I so hope that no one has lost their lives, and that everything will be ok!

Hugs, ~Kelly

I was praying yesterday as well! My wife got caught in the hail storm and was right next to the Parks Mall in Arlington so she drove to the mall parking garage(with the rest of Arlington) and waited till it passed. The tornado set down not to far away.

Now I don't believe tornados to be a laughing manner but every time I hear about one on the news I always think about being told to go into the bathroom, get in the tub and cover yourself with a matress. I always thought that sounded like a good idea until I got older and realized I couldn't fit a matress into my bathroom. How big are these people's bathrooms, or just how small are their beds? :D

And....How much time have you got to go get the mattress and put it in there? You must not live too far from me, I am just down the street in Grand Prairie off FM1382. When they showed the funnel going towards Cedar Hill, now that scared me! Glad to hear your wife was able to get in some cover!

Now.........What happeded with my Mavericks? :D:D:D

That is sure scary. Hope all is well who were in the path.

Being from Colo and in the area that I do not think has ever had a tornado don't know what I would do or where I would go. I would be like the deer caught in the headlights.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
