View original postYes I live in Houston. I was out of town when the hurricane hit. I am fine
View original postEven without a hurricane I would not be in town the day when Harvey hit for I had plans already to be out of town for a couple weeks when the hurricane hit. (Remember on 8/14 I asked for book, podcast and other recommendations due to lots of travel during the next month). The hurricane did impact my plans in indirect ways but you do not need to know the details.
View original postMy house got over 48 inches of rain (according to the nearest weather station of the over 20+ weather stations in the greater Houston area) yet due to location of where my house is on the street, and where my street is compared to other streets I did not get any water inside my house. (I live next to a water tower and that water tower sits on a hill and blah blah gravity stuff)
View original postSo I am blessed for shit happens, but also charris / Χάρις happens and that is the nature of the world. This time a blessing was on my house / favor / charity was given to me by the random acts of nature / the gods. I did fine with this flooding, and I am blessed at this present time. But some historical concept for you do not know my history… I can’t stand floods and I have lost too much property over time to water.

View original postA foot of rain in a town known as Augusta, Kansas (15 miles from Wichita) and the town is surrounded by an earthen levee (35 feet tall), but the levee broke for it was not just the foot of rain but the fact that Augusta Kansas is right next to two rivers and the foot of rain combined with the two rivers already high water caused the rivers to be 16 feet tall in height than what would be considered flood conditions.
View original postPlus two other floods that were localized to my house / basement due to hot water tank problems (one incident) and problems with the sump pumps (2nd incident) and lets just say I hate water and I hate flooding and I hate mold and I consider myself lucky that it did not happen to me again as a 4th time.

View original postI got back to Houston / Home on 9/10/17 aka Sunday in the early morning and I have been busy so I have not posted until now. Blah, blah, blah stuff happening in my life and I am completely exhausted because of those stuff and I could not really take on another project due to bad weather.
View original postSo yes I live, I did fine with the hurricane even though other people in Houston that I personally know did not. I am despite the hurricane very busy and right now I wish a little more grace will be happening in my life beside protecting me from disasters that completely destroy everyones else’s lives… (grumbles about my own problems unrelated to the hurricane which I do not want to share)
View original post (Roland is irritated for he hates that name when people get his name wrong, does Random Thoughts know this and he is just trying to troll me…perhaps … perhaps not…breathes)
View original postSo Random Thoughts you never told me you were Portuguese for that is pretty much the only romantic language that would pronounce Roland like that (you can make an argument for Italian and Spanish for they too can use Rolando but Italian would prefer Orlando and Spanish would prefer Roldán).
View original postRandom Thoughts; You are forgiven for saying my name wrong, for future reference the correct way to say my name is Roland + 00 (zero zero), or Roland for short.

View original postSo how is everyone else, everyone that is checking up on me? I expect a response from you if you read this and even if it’s a NM response besides the title post.
So we got a little rain in Texas this week

Glad you're okay. Nerves were definitely frayed here. Last year is still fresh in people's minds.

I do wonder sometimes why Americans build wooden houses

Incredibly cheap and quick to build. Wood, unlike stone, quite literally grows on trees.
