So sorry to see your wonderful lake retreat so damaged. Thank goodness your cottage was spared.<BR/>I understand about the 24/7 thing myself. When DH retired 7 yrs ago we were living in an appartment. We promptly moved to a BIG house to get away from each other.:c)) Retirement is a whole new ball game.<BR/><BR/>~~Fran ...:c)Franhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01860768880463962562noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3041588012248537691.post-81356893569917119822008-09-17T13:31:00.000-05:002008-09-17T13:31:00.000-05:00Hia Belinda, I'm so glad your property itself wasn...Hia Belinda, I'm so glad your property itself wasn't damaged. The dock looks repairable in better weather which is good. I'm so sorry it happened at all. Here in the UK the news just concentrated on Galveston so I had to go on-line to find out what was going on. I love your lake house- that would be my idea of paradise just sitting crafting watching the water. :-)<BR/><BR/>I have a 24/7 hubby- he works from home. It was a bit tricky at first but now we've got into a routine where we try to be in separate rooms and meet up for lunch. When the children come home from school we then go into family mode. Do you have a room you can just craft in and leave him to his own devices (or a huge list of painting/reapiring chores)?

Glad your damage wasn't any worse, but it does look like there'll be some work to put it all to rights again. And also glad to hear that everyone there was safe. I hear you on that 24/7 hubby thing! It's happening here too.Sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07498453213057487052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3041588012248537691.post-22730535547303332362008-09-17T00:17:00.000-05:002008-09-17T00:17:00.000-05:00We've been hearing all the reports of the rain in ...We've been hearing all the reports of the rain in your area.
