Surviving Ike

Well, we made it through Ike but the aftermath was a whole other deal! No power, which means no A/C almost killed us. We lost power around 4:00 am Saturday. We stuck it out Saturday and into Sunday morning but couldn't stand the hot, humid stillness. We bailed to Dallas to my Mom's house yesterday but are heading back to Houston tonight. I'm hoping that we will be able to get gas in Houston at this point. My hubby's boss wants to re-open her office despite the fact they have no power and no telephones and you can't use your cell phone in the area due to down towers. Yeah, she's not the smartest cookie in the jar.

Luckily, the hubby's parents in South West Houston got their power back this afternoon so we will probably stay with them until our power is restored in The Woodlands. We are thankful that it was not worse and of course, we pray for everyone on the coast who has it so much worse than we have it...

Shalom Out!
