On The Road Again . . .
My husband I and traveled to Houston this past week end to go to the wedding of the son of Mike’s best high school buddy. It was quite a wedding! Actually it was more like a combination wedding/worship service. The bride and groom both come from strong Christian homes and they wanted to use the occasion of their wedding to witness. Like I said, it was quite a wedding.
It had taken a little doing for us to get there. Our car began acting up around Madisonville and we were trying to limp in to Magnolia where Mike’s brother lives, but the car completely died about 25 miles from his home. He and his wife came to our rescue in separate cars. . . we drove off to the wedding in his car while they took care of calling the tow truck and getting our car to the Pontiac dealership in Conroe. We made it to the church with 14 minutes to change clothes and get seated.
After the wedding, Mike’s brother told us to go ahead and drive his car back to Dallas and we’d switch cars whenever ours was repaired. (He’s a good brother) This morning we got the call that the car is ready and so I’ll be leaving momentarily to drive to Conroe and make the car swap. I’m taking some audio books in the car with me. It seems to make the miles go by faster than just listening to music.

Our wedding was a worship service. It was an awesome thing. Don’t ya just wish you could live WITHOUT cars? I sure do!
…and how goes the computer problem. Are you using a new one now?
MuSe
…terrific that Mike’s brother came to your rescue so completely. You’re right, not only is he a good brother but a good friend. Did you enjoy the wedding?
The computer problem is still a BIG computer problem. I’m having to blog from work.
Mike’s brother Steve is a great brother-in-law. Couldn’t ask for any better.
We enjoyed the wedding very much, although Mike was worrying about how much the car was going to cost him.
so I guess you got back okay, huh? Sorry to hear you had such problems. I’ll see you soon…
