Hey, Lorrie. I'm glad to hear that you all made it through OK.
Being without power sucks! We were without power until late Monday night. I have a friend that lives just around the corner from you who has been driving all the way out to my house to pick up ice on a daily basis. I've been dumping all of the ice from my freezer into plastic grocery sacks everyday so they could have some way to preserve food until the power comes back up.
Hopefully, you all get your power back soon! If there's anything I can do to help, just let me know.
By the way, there are several gas stations on Telge and Barker-Cypress that have gas and no waiting lines. I passed by the Chevron @ Telge and 2920 this morning and they had Reg at $3.59 with no lines. There is also a Shell on Telge @ Kitzman with gas, as well as another at the corner of Telge and Spring-Cypress that seems to be up and running. The Shell station at the corner of Barker-Cypress and 290 has fuel and a Chevron just a block up Barker near Queenston is serving Reg only.

 

an this curfew sucks, i need to do somthing besides just work every day an then go home an cant go out past ten. but i am fortunate to still be able to go to work. some business's havent even opened up yet.

 

Haha texans.... I just spent $600 on meat for the deep freeze 3 weeks ago.. I called my meat guy and said he had lots of dry ice if I needed it. but my power came back on in about 24 hrs, and yea im glad its not like Rita, it felt like 100 after that storm

 

the houston curfuew is midnight to 6am..... but they are only enforceing it if your doing something you shouldnt be. Basically itsa a probable cause thing. I get off work at 5am, and there are plenty of people driving around. but if your stalking in a place with no power at 3am, and a cop sees you then get ready for a ticket >=)
