Last dr appointment was this morning, just have to wear a ankle brace for 2 weeks ish and I'll be 100% again!

 

Glad to hear you are doing better.

Im 99% positive I fractured a rib last week when I flew over the handle bars.

 

Mmm that doesn't sound good. You get that checked out or nah?

 

Nah
​

In enough pain as it is

I dont want my booty hole gouged

 

Not what you said last night.

 

but it's almost September??? I need more tacos in my life

 

So I made it through last night's rains. Saw the water line that made it to the mailbox in the front yard. Pucker factor 7/10.

This was in 40 minutes




It got higher than this



Since I didn't get much sleep, I got some things loaded in the truck so that I could do some checkups on some friends houses.

First up, a friend that is working in the medical center and had been there since Friday. She didn't think she would be there that long, and didn't leave enough food for her cats. And she didn't leave a key with anyone, and her boyfriend is stuck in the woodlands. So I scoped out her place, and fortunately the cats were sitting in the window.


Luckily they looked fine, but were curious as to why I wasn't coming in.

Next stop, another friend. He's in Austin right now and wanted to come back. His seemed all clear.

I decided to check out my friend's house that's next to White Oak bayou. They said there was some flooding in their subdivision. When I got there, the water had gone down both in the bayou and on the property. So I called them up so they could come over and get whatever they needed to before it could get worse.

Some roads had this


Current bayou level



Water line around their house






And in we went. Took two of us to open the front door



It was pretty gnarly inside. Things had shifted around so much, they couldn't believe it. My grandmother had to go through this a few years ago, so I knew what it would be like and made my recommendations on what do to. so we got to work. They grabbed photos off the walls, clothes, and things for their dogs. After that, we up-righted one of the fridges, but emptied both. We opened the appliances to drain out the water. Using a push broom, we were able to get most of it back out the front door. We also picked up the various food items that had floated around the house and threw them away. Photos were taken of everything, we wiped ourselves down with clorox wipes and we left.




My friend with the two cats at her house called and said she was able to leave the hospital today, but wasn't sure about road conditions. So I did some driving around to check for her. All was clear. The Buffalo Bayou is still flooded





I just got back home not too long ago.

So with that being said, I consider myself very lucky. Knowing my friends will have to go through the hell of post flooding is horrible. But for now, I'm going to be around the house in case some other friends have issues with their homes.

 

Naw. She doesn't live up here.
