Yes, If someone needs a pet boarded or something like that I can certainly do that. I don't have any extra room, but will certainly be glad to help out with a pet. I do have 1 dog and 3 cats already...so one more won't make a difference.

I have a spare room at my house also. It's small, modest, but it's mine. I'm in McKinney - north of Dallas.

Paula, Ginny, Lisa, Nancy, Marie - all my Houston area sisters, you know you're welcome if you need a place of refuge.

Hi all,

I am just 100 miles East of Houston, and we are leaving for realives in North Louisiana too. The wind will be the big problem for us. Please pray for my son who is in League City, Tx...which is just 15 North of Galveston. He is the asst. police chief there, and has to stay to head up command posts. The rest of his family has gone to Dallas.

I pray everyone will learn from Katrina, to take these storms very seriously, and leave. All the material things can be replace.

Be safe, my friends! We will chat later.

They have just issued a mandatory evacuation for my area. In 2002, when hurricane Lily came, we stayed with some friends about 30 miles north of here. We had planned on going there again, IF we needed to evacuate. But from what we are hearing, that may not be far enough north.

Please pray for all of us.

Our school systems were closed yesteday (not going to reopen til Monday) for officials to use our school buses for transporting the Katrina survivors to more northern areas. They did this for safety concerns AND to allow our local residents a place of refuge, since many were stilll at our main shelters.

Just a word to all of you - GET GAS NOW!!!!!

This storm will certainly have SOME impact on the Houston refineries. Ultimately, this storm will affect most of you.

what chaos.

Leatha pmed me yesterday to offer a place of refuge for us - THANK YOU fom the bottom of my heart!

And for all of you who have been so kind to offer shelter, big hugs and a genuine thank you!

LBT, you never cease to amaze me. I love you all.

I am in Texas about 100 miles away from houston, but they say that that she could hit us also, everyone here is prepared, EXCEPT me! I have been working, and have not had a chance to hit the stores for the necessities. We are really scared. Not sure what to do next.....

      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.
