Homeward Bound…

Well, I’ve been gone 48 days now. At times it hasn’t seemed long, but right now it seems like an eternity. Not in a bad way, but in the way that some things just seem like distant memories, even though 48 days really isn’t that long. By the time anyone reads this, I’ll probably be […]

Ministry To The Hurting…

Hey, this is Sandi! I finally have the time to take a couple minutes (yeah, right…I know my posts are never only a couple minutes long 😀 ) to talk about the stuff that really matters to me here. The ministry… Each day as I make my way from one applicant to the next I […]

Gasp! My Son, Jed Wrote A Blog Post!

Just had to get a word or so in out of my shock at Jed actually posting…and to let any new readers know that there are 5 of us who have the ability to contribute to our family blog (I need to get my grandkids blogging too…hmmm) so not every post is necessarily from me. […]

Has the world ended?

Probably not, but it should have, because I am writing a blog post. Very short, very much to the point. If there was one. This is Jed. I’ve been in Texas for a little over two weeks, and right now would give almost anything to be able to go to Dallas tonight and watch a […]

Where Angels (Some Folk) Dare Not Trod…

Hey everyone! This is Sandi. I’m still here in Houston, TX on deployment with FEMA. I had a little time to write tonight, so I wanted to try to catch things up a little bit. To do that, I’ll have to back-track to last week. I hesitated to share part of this lest I concern […]

A Houston Update

Not much time for internet, but wanted to update everyone. I’ve been in Houston for 2 weeks now, and it’s been an interesting experience. A great many signs are blown down, so finding my way around has been interesting nonetheless! If you ever want to find someone to take wrong turns with and explore Houston […]

A Soft Answer Turns Away Wrath, But A Harsh Word Stirs Up Anger

Well here we are… Houston, after what seems like three weeks. We are here. Jed just cussed out a lady on the phone at PaRR, right now I am more than a little concerned that she is going to cause us more trouble. Yes she was being unreasonable, but Jed needs to learn to keep […]

City of… Humidity

Sloshing Through Swamp Muck…

Trying to make time for a quick update. Here are a few more Houma pictures: The water was rising while I was in this area… You can see the water line in this house where the water was receding by the time I came through here. The water was up into this home before going […]

On The Hunt

This is Troy. Well it started off as a pretty straight forward morning. Waking up in the Explorer… trying to stretch and get the kinks out of my neck, then realizing that I’m 6’1″ and the Explorer is a foot and a half narrower than I am tall. Then you begin to notice the rain. […]
