Back in Dad's Trailor..

Well we're back where we belong.. We're very thankful that we're safe and that the storm seems to be over (99% sure.. but you know that crazy weather.)

Today the power came back on at about 5:30PM... Lucky too cause it was startin to get kinda hot... Thankfully Ray's wife made us lunch.. Never has PB&J tasted so good..

So about the roof... The corner of Ray's roof (his house, not the guest house we were in) got pushed up by the wind.. Brad says it looks like an opened can of sardines. Under the roof was Ray's home office.. that's pretty wet now. But he says he's got good insurance and isn't worried about it. No one was in that room when it happend or anytime durring the storm.. So no one got hurt.

We're all fed, clothed, dry, and cool. All good things. I'm glad I had the forethought to remember that my cellphone can post here.. It's been handy for not only my friends, but Brad's family in Australia. They've been SO worried about us!

I've knitted a few rows.. but not nearly as much as I thought I would... I probably will more in the next few days now that I don't have to worry about finding shelter or where food is gonna come from. It's also hard to knit when the power is out. lol!

I personally had a rough night last night.. Brad slept like a log, but I woke up about every 30 mintues when the wind would howl or something would hit our roof (Branches I guess.)

No trees uprooted or fell over thankfully. There were quite a few downed branches though.. nothing major..

..Well.. exept for that poor roof. lol.

Dad's trailor made it through amazingly well! Ray says we should be glad we weren't in it though cause when the wind was going this thing was rocking pretty hard.. But it didn't fall over and nothing fell off the walls or out of the cabinets.. It must be pretty well built.. But I still wouldn't want to be in it durring a storm like that. It's just good that dad has a home to come home to.. And we'll be here when he gets here.. He says he likes coming home to us. (Aww!!!)

So I guess that's all the news that is the news... Now all I gotta worry about is finding out when my school is back in session.

..Wooo fun.

Great to hear from u. I tried to get into msn, but from here the server is down, tho my phone did let me know that u sent something i cant get into it yet, but my laptop will let me into this thank god. Will check messenger when i get home tonight 7pm my time.

I'm so glad that u have the power back on, now at least u can continue to keep u'r phone charged.

Nanna and i tried to call u'r mum this morning about 6.30pm u'r time but all we got was the answering machine, have u heard from her, are they all ok?

You have no idea how glad i am to finally hear that your all ok. Would have been better if u'r dad could have been there will u.

Give everyone our love, i will let all know that u'r all ok.

They are sayin on Foxtel for u to go back into Houston in intervals, they are giving different times for different areas of where u live to come back. Tho i think u'd still b better stayin put for a while yet.

Love u all so much. Continue to stay safe.
