It feels like we've been here days. I feel wiped out. In a way I am glad that Ike is finally making landfall so we will know what we are in for (wow that sounded negative).
Today we tried to not watch too much TV or computer feed. We were having problems with our Internet connection, but it has improved now (I take that back our feed keeps breaking up). So tonight we are monitoring the storm. One report was from the Hilton in Clear Lake - that is the hotel we stayed at when we candidated at Gateway. This hotel is not far from our house. It was good to see that there was still power. Looked very windy though and the water is rising on Clear Lake.
Today to get away from things we went to a park so Rocky could run around. He had a blast. The park was empty so we let him off leash and he could just run. We came back to our room for lunch and then spent the afternoon at the Riverwalk and gave Kristal her first tour of the Alamo. Tonight I made a dinner in our very little kitchen. It was Hamburger Helper and watermelon - but it tasted great and felt good to sit down at a table (or at least half of us could). Tonight Eric and Robert are burning off steam working out in the exercise room. Rocky must be feeling insecure he has now laid under our coffee table and is laying his head on my foot.
Thank you for your prayers.
