I'm here safe & accounted for. It was really bad & scary here Tuesday
night. The noise was awful(sounded like a bunch of Jets over my roof)
and the rain & winds were more than I could imagine them to be. It
definitely sounded & felt like a tornado hovering over my mobile home.
The MH was rocking back & forth & shaking like crazy, plus my bed was
shaking too & lifted up off the floor. By the Grace of God we weren't
hurt and only some of the skirting & siding came off. The power went off
too. There was more damage in my area with roof's taken off, siding
toren apart, trees uprooted, car with roof damage & broken out windows,
businesses with windows busted out, five rooms of Kayla's school was
damaged so they had to use other classrooms. There is a lot of debris
around strung all over. There were two unconfirmed tornados, but believe
me, I'm 99.9 per cent sure that one was hovering over us.

The firt thing I thought to do was to say a prayer & asked the Lord to
watch over us & if it was our time to leave the earthly realm, just let
Angie & the girls stay asleep. They woke up though. The girls were
scared but they remained calm. Angie did too, but I'm surprised. She is
always so frantic about anything , everything or nothing.
My cat; Mal Mal, was so scared. She jumped up on my bed and was
shaking.:-( We all went over to Sandra's around four a.m. & stayed the
rest of the night. Angie went to work yesterday morning & the girls went
to school. I spent the day at Sandra's, reading a book, called " The
Kingdom".
After the happenings of Tuesday night, I didn't want to cook dinner last
night. Angie & I had food from Wendy's & the girls had food from Subway.
What a night!!! I was so frightened that I thought I was going to have a
heart attack....until, I said the prayer & left it in God's control.
After the prayer I was so calm, it was unreal.
Sure don't want anymore storms like that ever again.

Love you all,

Mary Jane

Sure glad all of you are okay MJ. The Lord had to have been watching over
you.

Glad that you or family weren't injured MJ -- a sometime poster here
ogeretla (Benny) lives in Granbury and I heard a tornado did damage
there -- tried to call him but think I got someone else's voice mailbox
so I sent him an email at his last addy -- it didn't bounce so that only
tells me he still has that for an addy? -- @

For those interested I finally heard from Benny and he's ok -- the
tornado was at least 5 miles from his place --
