All is getting better here! We made it thru Ike, and are trying to get things back to "normal". We were so blessed (THANK YOU GOD!) that here in Katy we didn't have too much damage. It was a VERY scary storm. I don't think I ever want to "hunker down" again! We lost power Friday night, and finally just got it back yesterday. My mom lost water and power at her house, and we had both been staying with my sister and her family (thanks Hutchins!). We went to clean up my mom's yard- mainly tree damage, branches and leaves, and she is still with out power. My dad's house is still without power as well, and he had to go out and purchase a generator. Please pray for all those that were not so fortunate. If they have donation places in your area, please help or give. Galveston and surrounding areas were hit so bad, and you see nothing but devastation on tv. I had to cancel my classes all week, because the neighborhood where I teach has not regained power yet. Lupe's district as well as all other main districts in Houston are still out of school, and supposed to return on Monday. I thank God that me and my family all made it thru, and are all safe and sound. Gabe did VERY well. He actually slept thru Ike very soundly. Having no a/c in Houston is HORRIBLE -My poor sweaty baby. One night at 2:15 am, he woke up so sweaty so our little family went out and sat in Lupe's truck just to get cool air. That night Shannon had gotten her power back, so we all went and shacked up over there! Hopefully we will not have another storm like that for another 25 years or more. I do have some videos and pics. to post soon. Take Care
