As I reach my final night here in Texas.. I’m not really sure how to feel. I feel sad but I also feel happy to be going home to see my ally nd my dog .. but I was also just getting use to being here .. 😔
I’ve been a little lost lately.. hense why I haven’t been posting. Unfortunately you mind has taken over again (we all know how that goes).
As we roll into our final days here in Texas I’m making the best of it. This past weekend I tagged along to Austin and got to “go out” for the first time in one month! I definitely took advantage of it got a little tipsy and ended up going home with someone. Well that didn’t turn out so well.. let’s just say I gave him the Irish goodbye🤷🏽♀️ anyways
I also may have messed up a good thing I had going..
I had someone really close to me, close to me again and now he’s gone bc of choices I’ve made😔 it has taken a huge toll on me and I’m doing my best to fix it.
With the end results, I think I have come to conclusion that I need to quit drinking.
Support me on this. It’s something that needs to be done.
I’m watching someone I love kill them selves in front of my eyes.. and there’s nothing I can do about it bc I’m in a different state.. it’s killing me now .. 😔
I’ve been a little lost I myself these past couple days.. now that my mind is free and hasn’t been so focused on what’s going on around us. I find myself asking questions I don’t have answers to..
I want to know what your conspiracy is on Elisa Lam. What DO YOU think actually happened?
I’m curious to see what everyone’s thoughts are.. I’m still trying to gather mine. I can’t make sense of it. Too many theories too many overs around that don’t add up.
Hey guys. Just a little update. It’s been a scary few days. After arriving at my moms house I’ve only been without power for about an hour. Waiting to see if it will continue to shut off today and tomorrow, but so far I’ve been really lucky. My family had some hours spent shivering and uncomfortable, but we are all safe.
That being said, many of my moms coworkers are stuck sleeping on the floor in a freezing airport because they were stupidly called up to work, and then the pipes burst in the crew room so it is completely flooded. Now they have nowhere to go, because every hotel is taken in the snow storm.
Cousins of mine have spent the last several nights cuddled around a fireplace, but this has lasted so long that everyone has started running out of firewood.
Many have now spent nights in their cars (which if done wrong, can, and now has caused carbon monoxide poisoning so please be careful) however a lot of people in low income neighborhoods have been without power for 3 days now. They are on a “boil water” notice but can’t boil water because they don’t have power. Those without cars are not doing well. My friends neighbor freezed to death last night and nobody knew.
I don’t want to sound too intense, because I know most are sympathetic, but this is a statewide natural disaster. Across the country millions have spent days without power. 21 people so far are dead. So anyone who is out there laughing that we don’t know how to deal with a few inches of snow, please look at the bigger picture here. We haven’t seen this much snow in years. We haven’t seen -20 or -25 degree wind chills in my entire lifetime. The fact that the entire south is now seeing this at the same time is arguably unprecedented.
None of us have generators. Most of our houses are not built with warm insulation. Even resources to salt roads are extremely limited. We all knew a snow storm was coming, but had absolutely zero idea that some of us would be without power, literally trying not to freeze to death for several days. Now we are adding lack of access to water or food on top of that struggle.
Our infrastructure failed us. Our government failed us. People, and children are dying, meanwhile we are being told by our own officials to “toughen up” or “fend for ourselves.” Our governor instead of taking any accountability, is using this as a political opportunity. Somehow this emergency is being used for price gouging, even though it’s supposed be be illegal. So as usual, the government failed, and the rich are getting an out while the poor are dying.
I don’t know what the next week is going to look like right now, but I feel like it’s going to be really really hard for things to just go back to “normal” after this.
As we pull up to the house to shower in the cold.. electrical pulls up same time and fixes the problem! Blessed to have heat and water again🙏🏽 continue praying for those who are still without! 🖤
Update; heading back to the house thag has power and water, so that we can all shower. But there is no heat.. house has been empty with no heat since Sunday.. pray for us.
Day 3 of this Texas disaster but no new updates yet.
So I was watching the movie “Mr. Right” last night and it got me thinking.. is there such thing? Is it possible to really fall for someone that fast? I mean, I know I fall and catch feelings quick but always find myself in a rut at the end.. so tell me everyone.
Our water is coming to an end💦 we are currently filling up buckets to be able to flush and whatever else we need it for. Water pressure is at an all time low..
