The Discovery Channel is doing a documentary series on the rebuilding - and even if six year olds are tired of cameras, I'm kind of glad they're doing it because it will give me a chance to see progress from a distance. And Leonardo DiCaprio is hosting it so it can't be all bad on the eyes either! :)
This past weekend was football Homecoming, and my niece was in the court - so that was exciting! One of her best friends was crowned queen, so I was excited for her! (She's a lot of fun.) Apparently not only did the local news out there cover the festivities, but some footage of it made its way to Indiana, because my friend Jenny said to me this week "I saw Lori on TV!" I said, "Lori who?" She said, "YOUR SISTER." Oh! That Lori! I guess she was in full view of the parade route. And I missed it! :(
Construction on their home is coming along - though it seems to me to be very slowly. The basement is done and all sorts of other little projects about which I, not being a construction guru, don't remember the details. Sorry. But yesterday Lori said they were working on the floor joists - or as they call them out there, "floor joyces." That cracked me up. So I guess it's coming along!
Meanwhile they are very busy running around to various places for volleyball games. Senior night was this week and Cassie was honored then. Well, and some other people too.
Back in Bekahland, I'm enjoying some time off work. I came home at noon yesterday and laid down for "just a minute" and woke up an hour later. Apparently I was very tired! I'm just kind of taking it easy - got the fall decorating done - at least for the most part. I washed all the windows and began the weekly ritual cleaning too. I'd planned to scrapbook today, but my Dad called to say he was coming over to finish some Habitat for Bekah projects (caulking on the roof, hauling away tree limbs) so I moved all the icky chores to today's plan so I can be "helpful" to him and will scrapbook tomorrow!
