It's been a full and long week since we've returned to our casa after the evacuation. Wind, rain, no a/c, no lighting... This was the full hurricane experience. We'll have to wait some years down the road to tell the tale to Anison. She's too young to know what's going on (7 months this week). All I know is that our child was hanging around in just diapers to keep cool in Montgomery @ Aunt Erin's house. It was a blessing that our house was in one piece and with electricity. No leaks, no busted windows... Sharon and I really didn't like the fence anyways. Now we have a reason to replace it. Hurricane Ike made everybody scatter all over the state. Ashley went to Waco with her mother and friends. Dad, Mom, and Dennis went to stay a couple of days in Victoria, then off to George West. I don't even know where that is? My brother, Alex was stationed in Beaumont with the National Guard. My sis-n-law, Jennifer Lopez, put in extra hours at the hospital that she works at. My future sis-n-law, Tiffany, spent time in Austin with her cousin Megan that came in from Cali. Our casa became Hotel Lopez this past week, but that's what familia is for. Grandma Carol got lots of extra time with Anison and Fam. All I know is that I'm tired of pulling / cutting / stacking tree branches and fence pieces. Still no school for Sharon and Pearland I.S.D. I actually got paid while we evacuated. Sharon and I had actually had our 1st hot date since Anison's birth...Thanks to Grandma C, dinner @ Canyon Cafe and dessert @ the Cheesecake Factory. (BL)
