Drove home from work today. Long lines at the gas stations, supermarkets packed.

If Houston residents don't already have their supplies, they might not get any. It's not panic, but it is a least a frenzy. My office will decide tomorrow whether to close on Thursday.

My dad lives west of Houston. When Emily was headed this way all the shelves were empty . I was visiting him and stopped in Wharton and stocked up. I felt kind of bad though caz I kept having to reassure people that they were fine and the storm hadn't made a north turn. Funny how people watch what you buy.

Just posting the link..

We are packing bags just in case..We have plenty of stuff for the animals..but missed out on the extra batteries..We have bottled water galore, drawing up extra water..Emergency food..some sources for light other than batteries..We are leaving after the storm even if the storm doesn't hit us hard if there is going to be a long power outage..

Decision to leave will depend on the news tomorrow. The car ride will be interesting with 3 adult cats and 5 kittens.
