| I hope you are safe, that you weather the storm, and that you can keep your spirits up. My prayers are with you and the rest of your city. I'm so sorry for all that you have seen and faced.

| Connie, Being from ND myself I have been watching closely the flooding in your area. I will say a prayer for you and your family. I lived in Fargo during the BIG one many years ago, thankfully not as much was damaged as was originally thought!! We can hope and pray that will be the fate for Minot as well. Take care!!

| Thanks to one and all for your well wishes and prayers. This has been so agonizing to see one after another of my friends lose their home. I know so many people in the valley...my old neighborhood is flooded and many of my old neighbors still live there. Then the thousands and thousands that I don't know...but up until this past week, they all had homes. It looks as if the crest is happening sometime tonight, 2 feet under what they expected, but with the severe weather all around today, it may go up again. We had funnel clouds on top of us today and they sounded the sirens. High winds, but thankfully it didn't last too long. The rain came down in buckets! I took the dogs and went into the basement. Well, we found out today at 3:30 that we now have to boil our water. We are not to drink it, wash our hands or brush our teeth in it, but yet they say we can shower in it? Go figure. LOL They are not positive of contamination yet, but our water system was infiltrated with something. I'm so glad we stocked up on drinking water and have a couple tubs of water outside. It's hard to remember not to wash hands and stuff like that. We are not to wash our dishes in it, nor rinse them. I'm going to put a note on all my faucets because I will probably forget. It was one of my friends birthday today...one of the friends I helped evacuate...and now her home is flooded.

| Oh Connie. You have so much to deal with. We forget about the luxuries we have such as water. I am glad you were smart enough to reserve some. The flooding is horrible. I hate that you are having to deal with the funnel clouds on top of all that. The poor people in that area that have lost their homes. Your poor friend. Not a good way to spend her birthday. I am so sorry. Sending prayers to each and every one of you!

| I am just now seeing this and I can truly say that I have never seen anything like what Minot is going through. I am so very sorry this happened. I am so relieved to know that you and your family are alright. Please keep us updated so we will know how you are doing. I just said a prayer for you and all of the other people in Minot that God will keep them safe and will help them through tough times ahead.

| It's just awful. The water will be a total pain for you. Who knows how long that will last? I'm so sorry for everyone losing their homes. The people in Joplin lost their homes, but they had insurance, or most of them did. The problem for the people of Minot is that very few had flood insurance. So sad!

Donating YT 30K Club Member | I just got off the phone from Connie. She has no internet and land line phone. She misses the internet but the land line not so much! They are still under a boil order for their water. So many places have been lost. The dog park is under water, 2 of the 3 animal hospitals are under water and so many others. There was a kitty stuck on a roof top and someone started a Facebook page Save the Roof kitty. I just checked it and it sounds like the poor baby was just rescued. Connie will update when she gets her internet back but has no idea when. Also, her DH is scheduled for hernia surgery tomorrow and they think it is still on. So if Connie can't update I will keep you posted. So please keep the prayers going. Thanks

| I was watching the news of that area yesterday. How terrible. My thoughts and prayers are still with everyone in Minot, ND. Also with Connie's husband and his surgery.
