More Notes from Swamp Land

It has been a looooooonnnnnggggg day. The home had a three panel sliding glass door in the front (a garage that had been enclosed). One of the panels had broken. We pulled the door out, framed up the wall, put in a new standard size door and put new plywood on the outside. We didn't get the exterior siding up, but it was a good days work for us.

The owner of the home--her name is Lena--came and helped us a little bit today. She certainly knows how to swing a hammer. She is a very cheerful, positive person that appreciates all that we do. She won't be with us tomorrow. She works all day and then has "stuff" at her church all evening. Man, does that sound familiar. Even in the midst of disaster response, church life continues.

A funny story. Lynn and I rode back with Harry today. I was sitting in the front passenger seat. My butt kept feeling warm and actually began to sweat. I started thinking that I had a fever and it was showing up in my posterier. I finally asked Harry if they had heated seats. They did!!! And Carol loves to use it and leaves it on. Boy, was I glad to hear that.

I am so tired, I will be in bed early and I am quite certain I will sleep like a log. Pray for us, that tomorrow might be as good a day as today.
