Good luck Jen--we're thinking of you all. Take care, and safe homecoming when 
it's over. I'm praying for your home too. 
V. glad you got somewhere to go and lots of other offers too--I just read one 
million folks are on the move. Kerry

Hi Susan!

I have heard from Gloria and I'll tell you the same thing I told her...I
feel extremely fortunate that I've got such a wonderful network of
friends all over the country!  Thank you so much for the support!  As of
now, we have reservations at the Motel 6 off of Hwy. 30 in Little
Rock...we will probably leave here early tomorrow morning and (fingers
crossed that our house is spared serious damage) head back to Houston on
Monday.  Although, we may leave sooner depending on the evacuation
orders...right now it's voluntary, but that is quickly going to
change...we're in a low lying area by the Bay of Galveston (elevation
only 16 ft.) and they're predicting a storm surge close to 20 ft.!

I'm happy we've got a place to stay (and wonderful offers) for the time
being...but I'll be honest, I'm scared to death that we're going to lose
our home!  I don't know if our flood insurance company will take pity on
us as we only signed up for insurance about 2 weeks ago (usually doesn't
take effect for a month).  Please keep our humble little home in your
thoughts!!  :)

And here is my cell phone #, as well:  281-229-1279...it's such a relief
to know that other Feleuk parents are nearby in case of an emergency!! 
Thank you so much, again...

Jen

Be safe.

You, your family, your home are all in our thoughts...  Am in NY but we are
glued to the TV--this has been a terrible season  Just don't delay--it
sounds like most evacues will leave tomorrow and my guess is traffic will be
tough
