Well it started out with no internet from Comcast and spotty service from T-Mobile but my electricity was on and I was comfortable. I just couldn’t work because I work from home on the internet.

Then no water and at 10:36 pm on Tuesday the electricity went out. It came back on Wednesday morning about 2:30am but went out about 9am went out again. I went to a friend’s house who had electricity for a few hours (my husband stayed home in the cold because my friend has animals that mess with his allergies.). I came home because he was hungry but all I could find to bring home were Doritos and bean dip and coffee. It teased me for about 5 minutes when the electricity came on and went right back out.

I’m sitting in my car charging my phone and getting warm. It’s 55 degrees in the house.

Update: We now have electricity. Still no water for bathing or dishes. We are under boil water orders but no water to boil. But due to my husband’s niece, we now have plenty of drinking water.

1. Stay safe.

Hopefully won't be too much longer.

2. It's supposed to freeze

for 2 more nights. I hope we aren’t out of electricity and water for the whole time. Also my work isn’t going to pay me for time I’m off, so I’m losing more than $100 a day for every day my internet is down. And my husband isn’t able to work either.

4. When shit went to hell in MO

I got the fuck outta there!

Hell is freezing over in TX.
My advice? Get the fuck out.

I saw Houston skyscrapers lit up like Fourth of July and the residents in the dark. Need any more reasons to get outta hell? There are plenty.
Your Republican majorities
Ted Cruz
Magats .......

It is good advice. Not that you have to take it.


I hope you are doing better this morning.
