It's amazing how much we take for granted; like being able to see in your closet, having a glass of milk, watching the news. This is the best day ever!!! 63% of Houston is still without power but they're working on it so hopefully everything will be back to normal soon. A big concern at the moment though is a lot of the medical center is still without power and running water. I know MD Anderson Cancer Center still does not have electricity or running water. Though they have generators, they only last so long. Please keep that in your prayers! Thanks!!

You never really know how dependent you are until you lose power for a couple of days. Hope the lights keep coming back on in Houston.

I feel for ya too, when the remnants of Ike moved up here, Ohio, we also had a cold front move through our state at the same time, so we got 70-80mph sustained winds all centered in Ohio, which was strange, but not the first time (the blizzard of 78 was 2 storms hitting right over us too)What I couldn't stand was some of these people, we had 1.8 mil without electric, were complaining about a couple of days without power when people down where you are had no homes left! Be thankful for what your have CK
