Hello friends and welcome back to the podcast. I am so excited that you're here if you're

listening on a Monday or Tuesday or Wednesday or whatever you're listening. Thank you so

much for listening today. It has been a very crazy week and as you could tell, I also

did not have my intro music, not going to have fancy transitions again this week because

my laptop still is not done. I think it's going to be done tomorrow, but as you guys have

probably seen, Texas has been thrown in the ringer for a really long time. The past week

it's been everywhere. A very rough snow storm hit Texas, a storm that typically if it hit

the north wouldn't be a big deal because houses are equipped for it. People are prepared

for these kinds of things, but here in Texas, it's just a different story. People don't

treat the roads like they do up north. It's just not really made to withstand this kind

is the power company or whatever. Did these routine power outages that actually ended

up just cutting off power for a lot of people and a lot of people's pipes burst in their

homes. A lot of people weren't able to use their water. My family's home in Keller. They

had a boilwater notice that they still have today. They've had it for half a week now.

You have to boil your water if you shower, drink, wash your hands, anything. It has just

been crazy. I went to go get groceries Saturday after everything because grocery stores just

weren't up and running. All the frozen section is cleared out because everyone had to

throw out everything in their fridge because their power was out. It has been crazy. If

you haven't dealing with this here in Texas, I am so sorry. I know everyone had it so

different for us. We lost power for a good couple of days. It was off and on for a day
