Terri Skelton here.  A steno freelance reporter from New Orleans, practicing since 1988.  I use Procat as my software.  Would love to connect with others along the coast.  My husband is from Biloxi.  I am a bird watcher.  Hope to meet others with common interests.  Thanks for letting me join the group!

I am a retired court reporter from the Tampa Bay area.  Now I am a scopist in League City, Texas.

Great, Jackie Ostrom!  What system are you on?

I am on Eclipse.

Hello everyone!  I am a proofreader that resides in the Houston, TX area.  

Welcome, Karm!

Hi Kelly.  I live in the Spring/Woodlands area.  How about you?

Kelly, funny story, but I used to work for Academy Sports + Outdoors, and one of the things we learned in training is that their national headquarters are in Katy, Texas! That's about all I know of Katy, though. LOL

Anyone else absolutely dying waiting on cooler temps? Super ready for fall...

Omg! I am so miserable. The feels like temp has been 100 degrees or above, BEFORE 10 am every day. I can't wait for fall, also known as summer in other regions.

Same here!! We have this old camper we've been wanting to get fixed up to use for the fall, but it's literally so hot the news is like, "Yeah....don't spend time outside. You'll have a stroke." The worst is the rain and humidity every day here, too. The struggle is real!!

Hey Bethany! Welcome! Still glad to have you here in spirit. :D

Anyone else having to prepare for Harvey? The stores are crazy here! No water, long lines, etc. If you're in Harvey's path, stay safe!

Yikes! I don't think it'll be too bad where I am, but I hope you and everyone else stay safe and dry!!

Hi guys! Hope everyone's faring all right after the influx of storms over the last few weeks. We're finally starting to get some cool temps in Mobile. We even left the windows open last night!

Who all has snow today?! I'm in Mobile, and we're snowless, but everyone I know in Louisiana, Texas, and north Alabama have a nice white blanket over everything! I'm insanely jealous.
