The next round of pain for the south... coming tonight into tomorrow. LA is probably less equipped than TX to handle this.

I was looking at that storm this morning. That's going to be a real mess if those predictions are right. I noticed nearly the whole state of VA is also a bullseye for some of the worst accumulation. Maybe it's just crappy memory, but I don't ever recall ice storms of the likes that we are seeing in the U.S. this year.

Life here is at full stress levels. We are at a crossroads in our lives and major decisions needs to be made and neither of us want to make them.

Mr. Angel was laid off from IBM during one of their mass lay-offs in Sept 2019. At that time he figured he would wait till after January 2020 to look for a new on, taking that time to do the things around the house that were needed and just enjoy a break from working two jobs all the time. BOY, did that turn out to be a wrong turn.

In 3 months, he will start looking outside the state focusing on areas that have a UPS hub for the insurance unless the new job has good insurance benefits. Most likely in the DFW area.

A major move would be a nightmare with all our stuff. Heck, we have a full big freezer full of meat that I hate thinking about transporting but We sure couldn't sell it either. We would likely need two large rental vans because we can't replace what we have once there.

Yet this is what I WANT to do. I have family in Texas and no one at all here. Wouldn't likely need nightly oxygen there as they are 5000 feet lower than we are here in the Mile High City. Plus, maybe getting the daughter away from this state will help her

We need prayers to have doors open for a job, either here or a new state - a place where we are meant to be. I've always felt there are places God wants us to be and I no longer feel Colorado is for us.

Yes a big wall of text but I needed to vent and get that all out there, plus the prayer request!

 Quoting: WhiteAngel


I would focus now on finding work, as that is the most important thing and that will determine the rest. There's no point in stressing about a move until you know you have to. If you really feel you would be happier elsewhere and would prefer to move, then that discussion should be had and decided upon first, so he can focus his job search in the locations where you're interested in living. He might want to look into headhunters to help him find a job, if he hasn't already. I'm talking professional headhunters, not employment agencies (although they could be good too). A lot of times headhunters are trying to fill jobs in different cities and some focus on certain professions or lines of work. I would recommend it if he's going to look outside of CO, because it's always a disadvantage when you're applying blind as an out of towner.

Been thinking about the rolling blackouts in Texas.

I just don't understand why this is happening. During the summer, huge amounts of electricity is used to power a-c units. So where did all the electricity go?

Been bugging me since this morning when I read about it. Basically the same number of homes that use cooling air in the summer are now using that for the winter.

Bugging me. Like this is a CT and I don't know that anyone is questioning this weirdness
 Quoting: WhiteAngel


Still have a lot of catching up to do, so sorry if someone has addressed this.

according to news reports, Gov Abbott over the last few years has moved the state to "green" energy with wind turbines and solar panel farms. So much so that as much as 70% of the state's power is now dependent on those 2 types of generation. In summer, there is huge demand, but they continue to generate power. When these storms hit, the solar panels were buried with snow, which equals no energy produced. And the ice and freezing rain and frigid temps literally froze up the wind turbines. Even broke a lot of them. So, no energy produced. At the same time the demand for power was massive and fairly sudden. The grid couldn't keep up, and it literally started crashing the power plants. The anger around the state is growing by the hour. I can almost bet there will be some changes to the grand plan, or heads will roll!

Glad your dental work went good, Sim. I've had a LOT done, and would almost rather cut off a digit than go to the dentist. Well, almost...

Thanks Joinca for all the vids and reports. I really appreciate the info you bring!

Will be praying for your decisions, WA! That big of a move is daunting. God will open the right doors...

Glad you finally got some snow, Kickin. Got a few more inches than me. I could handle the ice & snow & cold, but preferably NOT with a loss of power! Millions of folks around the state had it a lot worse than me. I've been prepping for emergencies for 20 years. Still have some fine tuning to do, but we stayed fairly warm, had food & water, and were able to do ok. And could offer help to neighbors in need.

And yes, AC, will be looking for a couple of old-style propane heaters. The Heater Buddy goes through propane way too fast to be practical. And while it was warmer than nothing, the old heaters were way better. Wish I'd kept some of the ones we used to have. Good advice!!!

Heading to bed now. Amazing how stressful the last few days have been!!! Hope we don't wake up at 2 with another power loss.

Peace, love & hugs from frozen W TX!

Hey everyone! Quick post now, will catch up reading later. It's been a crazy week so far. Water to the house froze, so no running water since Sunday afternoon. It was 7 degrees at the time. Got down to -2 that night. We have heavy ice covered with snow on all the trees. got at least an inch of ice and about 5 inches of snow. Power has been out more than on since Monday. Got down into the 40's in the house a couple of times. My cookstove is gas, so I'm able to keep burners going, and heat water to warm the air. I covered windows and separated off the kitchen & den from the rest of the house to minimize the area to warm. We've used the fireplace, but it's not built well and doesn't project heat into the room as well as it should. But we're better off than lots of folks across the state.

The power situation is going to be a huge political problem in the state as more info comes out about why our grid failed. Our state leaders truly screwed us when they converted 70% of our power generation to solar and wind. In this weather, the solar panels are covered with snow and don't function. And the windmills literally got covered in ice and quit turning - lots of them actually broke. At the rate this is going, I wouldn't be surprised to see lynch parties headed to Austin. Especially as deaths start being reported.

Can honestly say that this has been quite a test of my preps. Did really well on some, failed on others. Have a long list of things we need to do, and a few items to buy. Just hope we don't have a repeat of this kind of weather catastrophe again in my lifetime! And unfortunately, we have another weather system coming though by tomorrow with up to 3" of snow possible. On top of what's still on the ground. It won't get above freezing til Saturday.

Enough for now. Hope all of you stay safe & warm. Will catch up as I can, as long as the power stays on.

Peace, hugs & love from W TX
