Sunday morning

Talk about a rude awakening! I was snoozing away when a loud boom woke me up. The transformer in my complex blew so there is no power. And the wind is blowing like crazy! Guess it's our turn for Ike. So I've been surfing on the crackberry. Thinking about going back to church, so I've been looking up churches. I really hate to go to a new church without fixing my hair, or a shower. No power-no hot water, no straightening iron. Guess I could go to the gym and shower. But then I would feel obligated to work out. Ugh! See what decisions I have to make due to the transformer!

On a different note, keep those people affected by Ike in your hearts. My company has many employees in the houston area. We had not heard from two of them by the check in deadline yesterday.

Speaking of my company, I have to say this appears to be the most caring company I have ever worked for. Twice this week, we sent money to our tx employees to prepare for Ike. We institued a check in arrangement so we know everyone made it to shelter. We arranged transportation for some who needed it. Its a great feeling, knowing your company really cares about the wellbeing of the employee. I think I have finally found my place, at least in the work world. Now I just have to work on the rest of it.

Oh my... glad to hear you're safe and sound. Keep us posted on the two folks you've yet to hear from.

We're down in Manchester camping for the week...
