The Rain

Well the rains began on Friday and kept on coming. Friday night Russ and I were supposed to go to Radio Music Theater but never make it. On our way to dinner, Janet called to let me know that the smoke detector was going off and Sarah was hysterical. 20 minutes later when we got to the theater, Sarah was still having a hard time and screaming for us that we decided to drive home. We suggested that Janet take her hearing aids out. When we arrived home, Sarah and Janet were in her car waiting on us. Sarah was still crying, grabbed my neck and wouldn't let go. Russ went inside to check things out and the candle we had left lit, was smoking up the house. Russ blew it out, and we opened the doors and everything went back to the way it was supposed to be. Sarah kept asking Janet to call the police to help them. She knew that when the fire alarm goes off, you call the police/firemen. It took Sarah a long time to go to sleep, and we never got to the theater.
Sarah woke very early on Saturday and off we were going. We had swimming in the a.m. and since the rains began to really fall, we went to lunch at El Gallo, shopping for new clothes at Value Village and came home. We never made it bowling with the Parisians. The weather was so bad we stayed in and the girls came over to play for a little while.
On Sunday we are going to drive to San Antonio to support Russ' mom while she gives a book, that she wrote, to the church about the church. None of his brothers are going to be there and he wanted someone to be there to support her. We will leave very early and come back very late. It will just make it easier on Mom if she has someone there with her.
