Rita Knocks on the Door

We're about to turn in for the night. The wind is blowing outside, but well below even tropical storm wind range at this time. There's only a little bit of rain so far--but that will change in the early morning hours. Since Rita moved east of its initial path, AND has been weakening in strength (thanks for all those prayers!), we're relieved but still wary.

Rita is knocking on our door, but shouldn't slam it down. We had a good dinner with the gathered family, enjoyed each other's company, and even the two dogs got along well. So a bulldog and a dachsund can be friends!

Here's hoping for more good news in the morning. Now we just want to get to the other side of the storm and get back to a normal as soon as we can.
