Home From the Beach

Amanda and the kids got back home today. It's great to have the house alive again. When I was at Lowe's yesterday I found myself being very chatty with the ladies who cut our window shades (I had to go twice). Things are back to how they should be here.

Everyone seemed to have a really good time, though Amanda tells me that Noah kept whining about getting home. It's nice to know that I was missed. Now it's back to real life for them. I think Amanda is looking forward to getting back on a regular sleep schedule. Her friend really needed to talk, but is not a morning person. Consequently, Amanda had some late nights by our standards. She should be fine in a day or two though.

The really good news here is that a cold front is coming through. The heat index this morning was 91 degrees at 6:15. Since I made it out yesterday I decided not to push running in this. It's just brutal. It was particularly brutal at church yesterday when I had to preach with a broken air conditioner. Our folks hung in there well, but it was still pretty rough for all concerned.
