Blake made it home last night, and like any typical 24 year old, he headed for his friends' house. We're expecting him here in about a week to a week and a half. Till then, he'll be in Houston with friends. He missed seeing his friends before he left because of the hurricane, so he's taking a little longer there now to do the meet and greet thing.
It was a long trip home. He left last Wednesday evening and arrived Sunday evening after stops to Kuwait and Germany along the way. He says that he's gotten his packages that everyone sent to him and was very grateful for the treats and miscellaneous stuff that makes life a little easier over there. The one thing he mentioned was the mayonnaise packets that were in one of the packages. Who would have thought, but thankfully, someone did.
Of course, last night, his first night home, the phone rang in the middle of the night. We were terrified because that's just the way things have been when Blake's been home. It was an alarm company trying to reach someone who apparently had our phone number before we did. It was a relief, as you can imagine, but I held them on the line longer than a typical wrong number call, just to make sure. You really never know what to expect with Blake. ;-)
Well, I'm sure there will be more news over the next few days, so when I learn more, I'll drop a line up here.
