***OKIES in the BYC III ***

Oh god, my friends in chickasha are in the middle of a huge tornado, they're showing live footage on my tv. I tried to call them and tell them i twas forming & they answered and the phone went dead and now I'm seeing live footage of the tornado at chickasha. I'm crying so hard, they live in an end apt. by the highway in chickasha and I told them last week to get in their bathtub if a tornado came. I pray they did.

Teva just talked to Vern and both he and Suzi are fine as is their critters.

There is a but though as recently Suzi has been diagnosed with Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever. She is doing ok and it is a very treatable condition, a prayer or just a thought or two will help with her recovery.

Thanks for checking on Suzi and Vern. I was very concerned about them when I heard the first round of tornado was going over Piedmont.

We are watching the heavy rain outside and have the TV on. Sirens are going off but the TV doesn't show anything rotating close to us. Lightening is getting really close though so I am going to get off for awhile.

I called my dad and told him I was going in the bedrm closet if the warnings come here, it's the most strong room in my house. I live in a huge church. Ihope God protects this house and me his child. I'm so scared. The trauma I went thru in '74 had mostly gone away except for some dreams sometimes. There's nowhere to go here, my next door neighbor has a tiny storm cellar but I imagine it's flooded after the rains yesterday. Idon't knowif I can stand another bad tornado, please pray for everyone in the path of these huge storms.
cuz called and she's scared, her bf was let off work early and headed straight home to edmond and now she can't reach him on his cell. I'm so worried about my friends in chickasha.

our tv just showed pics of someone holding a baseball and a hail stone in both hands. the hail was as big as a cantelope. I think he said it was from Canton? they took a hit and the photos look just like Joplin.
I'll stay on here a little bit but will unplug and take my laptop to the closet with me and my cat. I hope my chickens will be ok!!!!!! I love my babies.

My friends live on the east side of chickasha which is where they said the tornado was.....
she's disabled and won't be able to get clear down in the tub, she has hip replacements but I told her get in the tub anyway.
I padded my floor of closet with pillows cause if I get down I may not get up, I'm disabled too but will get down if I have to. My dad knows to come look for me if we get hit here. He lives 17 miles away.
