Rainy Morning in Galveston

It has been raining here for the past two days and the temps have dropped along with the rain. The humidity is still high..even higher with the rain. The water is dripping off the roof just outside the patio door where I am setting to do this entry and I am feeling very much alone...Yes Sherri is gone again...off to Arkadelphia....leaving me here to work on my sister and BIL house.

I am just about finished with the things that we had planned on getting done these past two weeks. The down stairs of their house was wiped out by the high tides during hurricane Ike. Not much was left of the walls and very little of the belongings they had stored down stairs. We have managed to rebuild all the outside walls and rebuild the closet that they had in the den. I have some pictures of the before and as soon as I can get back to my computer I will show you the after pictures.

They have cable Internet here and for some reason Sherri nor my computer will connect here?? I guess it has something to do with the way they have their set up. If it is at all possible I will try and download some pictures on this entry. You will see them if it works.

Sherri will be returning here on Friday afternoon and by then I should have all my tools gathered up and ready to return to Wills Point where we will drop them off and then head back to Dallas. I will have to return to work on Monday...GRRRRR! Such is life until May!.


Sherri said that she got on chat last night and talked to some of you. I could not get on because of the cable going in and out due to the rain. I will give it a shot tonight and see if I can hold a connection. Well until that time I guess I best finish my coffee and get to work. I have to try and put some pictures on here so we will see. I will be with you later....


Somewhere in Time.
Jim and I start out with all the energy in the world and ended up without any...LOL
Not all was work. We do have this view in the evening while sipping on a cold one. Nice!!!
Just another shot of the canal they live on.
This pile is still going down.

Is a "bad" day in the life of a fulltimer a whole lot better than a dull day in the life of a wannabe? LOL :) I know you two will recover and be happily on your way.

Don't know what happened with the first comment, it is not what I entered. It is like it copied an earlier comment or something. Oh well that is me and computers not getting along!

What I said was pack up the tools and come on to my house. You can remodel mine too!! LOL....... Don
