September was a CRAZY month for us!! It started off smooth and calm and then Hurricane Ike hit the coast of Texas. Chris was deployed with a group of firefighters from Tarrant County and was sent to Galveston to help with recovery on September 15th. Their assignment ended up that they WERE the Galveston Fire Department for 3 days. They worked alongside the guys running calls, helping clean-up the stations, and doing whatever else they could to help out. The devastation was unbelievable and the pictures are even more unfathomable. (Sorry I cannot share, but they were asked to sign an agreement not to post their pictures)! He returned on Friday the 19th!
While Chris was gone that left me to scramble for childcare arrangements for the week!! Luckily Paco was willing to take off and save me Friday - the one day the babysitter could not help out! I was SO glad to have him home!
The next week was spent dealing with a stressful work environment for myself - but that is finally settling down. Last weekend we went to Ninny and Paco's to finally celebrate Paco's 60th birthday!
I ended up at the dentist office because my crown on my front tooth came off and I had to get that replaced, but I changed dentists and LOVE my new dentist!!
That was September - so here's hoping that October is calmer for us!!!
