Well, we got hit hard by Hurricane Ike. We have trees down but no damage to our house. Thank goodness! We have no utilities and we do not know how long it will take to get them back. We have been living with Ally for the past 6 days and with Gary's brother 5 days before coming back to the Houston area. We hope that our friends are doing Okay and did not suffer terrible damage to their homes and lives. I wish all my friends hope and comfort during this time. My prayers go out to Bill and Mary Hearn as they rebuild their lives and home. Also, to Charlene Saunders.
Gary and I are blessed to have come out of this with only minor damages. Thanks to Bob and Glenda who opened their home to us, our birds, and animals. Hannah gave up her bed for us to sleep in. Thanks Hannah! Special thanks to Allyson and Kevin as they have rescued us once again.
About Me
- lisashep
- I live close to Houston, TX in a cypress swamp. I love the cypress trees, the frogs croaking in the evening, and the beautiful green color of the trees in the hot summer. I have 2 children, Allyson, 31 and Chris, 28. They both live nearby so we are a very close family. Ally is an insurance agent and Chris works at the Houston Zoo in the bird department. He is the supervisor of his area. I have 2 grand babies, Kahner Ray Krengle and Garrett Alexander Krengle. Kahner is very special and whatever Kahner wants Kahner gets from his Nana. Kevin is my son-in-law who I adore and love very much. I am married to Dr. Gary Holmes. He is an administrator for the LaPorte ISD. He, also, is an adjunct prof at UHCL. I love almost everything to do with nature and the arts.
