Awesome God....

I can only say that I Serve An Awesome God!!! In a previous blog, I mentioned that D had a lump of some sort growing on his kidney... well, we received the results on Tues. and this lump has shrunken considerably! My God is Good!! I am always in awe when He shows His answer to prayers... Wow.... :O)

Hurricane Ike...

Well, I'm sure you have seen the news that Ike was certainly headed to Corpus Christi. So, D says Wednesday (10th), " Just giving you a heads up that we might have company." Well, in a mad dash - I stop school and tell the kids to help me!! I had decided to go to the LaundryMat to wash everything. I finish separating everything, meanwhile, the kiddos totally cleaned their rooms in case they needed to be offered. ( Under the bed, closet, etc ) (N's was overdue!) Just as we were finishing up and about to load up... my good friend Tina calls and needs to borrow the Explorer because her vehicle was actin' funny. So off she goes and my trip to the laundrymat is postponed until she returns.....

Meanwhile...

We are still cleaning and making everything extra comfy for our guests. It's hard to feel at home in someone else's home so try, try, try to make them feel extra welcome...... almost done..... Tina by now has called and is returning! ---------Kids, I'll be back----- gonna drop off Tina & boys---

Off to the Laundrymat....... roughin' it 2+ hours with countless other women/men also on a mission. "Mom, can I..?"----No, I have to finish! "Mom, I'm tired..." Sorry, I am almost done....

We're done!! We take off to the house...... unload the Explorer, (Suburban's in the shop), put away everything --- Done!!!

Later that day, D come home. Hasn't heard anything from our guests....

Evening comes....Lights out!! Goodnight!!!

Ring..... ringgggg... Hello? Oh, hey guys, where ya'll at? Oh, you are? Ok, well, talk to you tomorrow. Bye.... Click.

Who was that?

Oh, they're staying at Julio's and Stella's?
