Lack of Power....

That is the dilemma in Houston apparently.  Trailboss posted a comment about a phone call from Scott, and her blog also has an update.  I got a text message from Pammie, she is fine.  Just tired and hot - without power and therefore no air conditioning.    I'm still praying...

I went to a meeting this morning and then for a 5 mile run.  I have so much to get done this weekend it is absolutely scary.  My daughter brought over a huge box of peaches.  I made a batch of jam last night and barely put a dent in the supply.  I have a lot of work to do and not a lot of time to get it done.  The peaches are very ripe.  And I have much work to do here at home and also at work.  I had intended to work all weekend.  Not getting a very good start on it, am I?

I better hit it now.

Thanks for the update on Pam. I noticed Dave posted with today's date but I am pretty sure he set up the posts Friday.

Our minds must have been on the same wavelength re: "Lack of Power..."

When we visit Cincinnati in the summer, there is a fantastic local ice cream store that makes their own ice cream and the best in my opinion is around August when they make peach ice cream. I would almost be willing to go there just to taste it again.

Thanks for the great idea Prayer Girl. I may make some peach ice cream. There is only so much peach jam a person can stand.

I'm glad for the update on Pam and Scott. I hope that Dave is okay. And Lambda center. When I read your post I thought of first things first. Maybe a peach cobbler would be good?
