As I said in my previous post, we have been hunkered down in Canyon Lake at Shane's dad's lake house. We love it here. It is quiet and peaceful and the weather has been awesome. But, we are eager to return home. Shane has caught up on his work and is prepared to teach a class on Monday and Tuesday at HP. So, we are planning on driving home Friday.
I am sure some of you are wondering why we want to return. Well, our yard still needs some clean up work and we have missed out on opportunities to help friends this week. The other side of our street is still without power. They have been able to use our washer/dryer and cook at our house, charge cell phones, etc. We also have one big empty fridge/freezer. I am eager to give it a big cleaning before we start to fill it up. And, our cats are there and I hate to leave them for too long as Sidney has separation anxiety that usually ends up costing us $$ at the vet.
We have had some fun. In addition to going to San Antonio and walking on the Riverwalk and seeing the Alamo, we have taken Jacob to Landa Park where we played at the playground and Shane and Jacob fished. After that, we went to eat at the Gristmill in Gruene (awesome meal) and peeked through the windows at Gruene Hall (wish we could have gone in but couldn't as Jacob was with us). Today, Shane and Jacob will be having some more fun either fishing or going on the boat.
As for me, I am sick with fever and sore throat...maybe the same illness Jacob had last week. I am taking it easy which means that Jacob is watching way too much tv...I feel like a bad mom but I need to get some rest which is hard to do in a strange bed. So, I look forward to my own bed and getting well soon. Please pray that I will get well and that whatever it is that I have does not get into my sinuses, which would mean more antibiotics.
This may be the last post for a while as we still do not have internet service yet. Take care all and hope to catch up soon.
Laura
