T.S., I Love You


This was my desk on Monday afternoon. With Tropical Storm (T.S.) Eduardo moving in, they closed down the space center and we were ordered to wrap everything and go home. It was a nice day, despite the raging heat, so we went and had some of these.




Luke came along, too, since his daycare closed early, as well.


We charged all of our phones, checked batteries, and waited for the rain to start. Sometime in the night the system moved east and we caught the "dry side" of the storm, meaning it was just another rainy day in Houston. I woke up at 8:00am since M let me sleep in (thank you, thank you) and realized I had not slept that late for almost 6 months! We spent the day puttering around the house and playing with Luke. I even got to play a little bit with the camera M brought home in case he was called into work. It is very nice and very, very out of my price range.

We were very lucky and it turned out to be a nice day off.

How fun. Those unexpected days off are the best! We get a few in the winter, but they've been few and far between the last few years.

Glad you were spared the nasty part of the storm and got to enjoy and extra day with the family.

And seriously, I'm SALIVATING over that margarita!!!
