Looking For Me?


We're still battling the effects of Hurricane Ike and trying to get by without power [hooray for the lovely neighbor's air conditioned garage apartment!], but I want to thank everyone for their love and concern. We're faring alright, things are looking up, and even in our temporary home, Lil’ Corn managed to find us. Life is good.

I was wondering about you and hoping everything was ok. Glad to hear things are looking up - hang in there!

Mom said...

I am relieved to know that Lil' Corn survived the hurricane. I was worried after we had spoken about him.

Most of all, I am glad that you and JJ are fine and I'm glad your wonderful neighbors are taking good care of you. Be sure to thank them for ME. Love you.

Megan said...

Yay! So glad you're all well, and that you have some lovely neighbors. Nice to see the cat too! Good luck with repairs and getting back to normal.

Jessica said...

It's so good to hear from you...

I'm glad you able to find a temporary home. It's amazing how kind people are.

Kate said...

Glad to hear you are comfortable somewhere! Hope things are back to "normal" somewhere.

Courtney-

I'm glad you are OK! I missed you yesterday and started to get worried when I didn't see an update. Your blog is the first of my day I peak at. smile...

That is great to know you have wonderful neighbors! I'm sure you will stories to share-

Lil' Corn is a cutie! Is she a stray cat or one that comes out to play? It is a good thing she made it through the hurricane.

Again glad you are OK!

Courtney said...

Joyce: Your comment made my day! Thank you so much for the sweet words. Lil' Corn was a stray until the neighbors across the street took her in. She's such a sweetie and always comes to look in our windows - I think she secretly wants to be a Barton! If I had known her owner left her outside during Ike, we would have certainly brought her in.

Paloma said...

So glad to hear you guys are doing okay! Hope your power gets restored soon!XO

MIMILEE said...

I have missed you!

Aww, I'm sorry you are displaced currently. My family was evacuated in June due to wildfire. It is so scary not knowing if your house will be okay to return home to. Prayers.

Courtney said...

I'm glad to hear that you all are okay and that you have access to electricity! Hope you can get back to the comfort of your own home soon.

I went to the Woodlands the other night and it looks like the world had just stopped moving. It was so dark and the streets were empty and filled with tree branches. So eery! I also happend to see a white utility van surrounded by like 6 cop cars outside of an electronics store - I suppose they were looting - so sad.
