Well, I’ve tried sending several updates this morning and they’re all cued up in the outbox. It seems the networks are choked with traffic. So, I’m getting this one up via my laptop and wireless card. Here’s where we are…
Storm Damage
The house made it through the night well. No worries there. Of course, we haven’t gotten outside to check things out with regard to the roof, etc.
Electric
We do not have any. We’re just like about 90% of Harris county in that regard. 2.1 million residences are in the dark. There are reports this morning of a transmission line downed up near Conroe. I’m betting it’s not the last one we’ll hear about today.
The kids
John woke up in full teenager mode this morning. (Needs instructions three and four times, does things wth an attitude, etc.) I suspect it’s a lack of computer time that’s doing him in. Kate’s been largely good. Stella and Zuzu are enjoying the adventure.
I’ll log back on to send more word later. Batteries are precious, so I’ll be rationing reports appropriately.
