Ok we are safe. It was tense for a few minutes but calmer now. We are out of safe room. Mikki is terrified. But Rosie is doing ok. DH is driving now to see if any damage. Praying that others are as lucky as us as the storm continues to move.

Oh thank goodness, Rhonda. I'm smiling. Finally some good news. I imagine it was so hairy and no wonder you and those babies are ragged. It sounds just like a man to go looking for damage and what he can do! What would we do without them?

BabyGirl Rosie · 05-20-2013, 06:39 PM

He won't get in the safe room with me. I think he is stupid! He said debris on the roads but don't appear to have any other damage.

Glad it doesn't seem too bad.

Why won't get get in the safe room with you? Is he claustrophobic and doesn't want to tell you or just being a tough guy? I'll bet your were scared silly!!!!!!

He will get it when it is BAD! When he can see a funnel cloud. I know it is dangerous when he gets in. I get in once they state the warning. I was scared. And Mikki was so scared. It looks like there may have been a tornado about 30 min away from us. Sounds like it might have went through the business district. They haven't confirmed it was one yet.

I saw her daughter and granddaughter on CNN talking about how her hero son who took off to find his grandma and found her wandering with her little Yorkie and he got them. She and her daughter are on their way to meet up with them. The son said everything is gone - don't know if he was talking about Gram's house or his but I imagine it was her house that was all gone.

Oh thank God you are all safe. My heart has been in my throat. How tragic and sad. I'm so sorry for everyone who has been touched by the destruction.

Maximo · 05-20-2013, 07:33 PM

I am relieved you are safe. Praying Mikki is feeling better now.

I just saw the death toll in OK is up to 51

The sky is scary over here but so far no warning sirens or anything. Me and the babies go in the closet if we have to. Prayers and hope to everyone in the thick of it still.

I'll be praying for us tomorrow!

This weather system is so scary. We just started getting thunder and lightning but only severe thunderstorms predicted no tornados. This is the first big scary storm since Ken passed and I am scared. He always got the candles and flashlights out and I felt safer with him here. I hope everyone stays safe.

God bless you tonight, Patti. It is so scary the first time you have to face things like this alone.

Yorkiemom1 · 05-21-2013, 04:53 AM

Trust me Patti.....Ken is right there with you! You just go about and do the things he used to do....candles and flashlights....something to light those candles with, and be sure you have good batteries for your flashlights. You have to do like we do right before hurricane season starts....flashlight check, battery check, battery operated radio check,...I am sure Ken had a time of the year he did all that....you do that now, for y'all.

sandy simpson · 05-21-2013, 10:03 AM

All my friends in Texas. Prayers for your safety. I am so scared just thinking you may get a hit from all this mess. Is the closet safe enough? Can you relocate to another city like the hurricane people do? Do you go somewhere underground? I have never been through stuff like this and I wish you would not have to either. May you all be under divine protection during this time.
