Home at Last

Think of every cool song lyric that speaks fondly of home. Now sing every one of those songs. Don't you feel better? You're welcome! *grin*

I type at a few minutes after 6 on Monday night. From the comfort of home. In fact, I'm blogging under the influence right now...of a 2-hour power nap on our living room floor (James' puppy helped with this) and of my 1st complete shower since last Monday! (Note to all concerned: I have actually bathed since then, so don't be scared. Just haven't stood under a glorious shower)

Today's was a fair uneventful trip. (Of course, I can't drive yet...) The hurricane was a total non-issue for us. Sunny weather & no clouds all the way through east TX & south LA. (Of course, a frog-strangling rainstorm landed on us right as we got near home. But we didn't care.)

Progress on the melting-face front too. I held the door open for a family @ our lunch stop in Baton Rouge, & Lisa said after "see? Your face didn't scare those little boys..." *smile*

Tired is the one-word description of now. About to go walk around the yard a time or two, which will require all of the oomph I can muster. And I'll probably have to nap after. Oh well...

Anyway, just wanted everyone to know that we're home. Thanks so very much for your continued prayers!

With love & hope,
Mike

p.s. - if you didn't already, go read the hilarious comment from my long-time fraternity buddy on the previous post. Thanks, GTO...I needed the chuckle, as did my family...
