Nothing happening yet...

It's 12:45pm and we're here at the house just having a rather lazy day. I've taken the opportunity to do my laundry (how exciting!!) being that we're supposed to be at home today. We lasted four hours before we went out to see if we could see any of the crazy traffic that is supposedly dogging Houston. Looking out at the I-45N from the frontage road there were next to no cars. A good sign I would say, that people have heeded warnings and got out when they needed to.

The news is showing live reports from Surfside Beach and Galveston. The only entrance into Surfside is now impassible with water and debris covering it. The shot from Galveston showed what looked to be a 12-yr old kid with her family watching the waves. Really??! Really??!!! What can you say...

Back here in The Woodlands, things are relatively quiet. The park down the road is busier than usual given that everyone is home. Driving past the Village Square showed the grocery store and Jack In The Box to be absolutely packed - I'm talking standing room only at JITB - weird... It was sunny earlier but it's clouded over now and about 31C. I can see that there is a bit of a breeze outside but not much.

We inflated the air mattresses for the kids and are ready for our family camp out tonight. Audra is already asking to go to bed so she can sleep in her little Dora inflatable bed, lol. I suspect Ben will be sharing his bed with Juno as she's already claimed it and is sleeping happily (until I turn on the vacuum).

Here's a couple of pictures of the 45. Not much to see. No traffic and a bunch of puffy clouds.
