We’re currently looking for a home to buy in Katy, Texas, a suburb West of
Houston. Katy is 30-40 minutes from downtown without traffic and as much as an
hour or hour and half with rush hour traffic. Bruce’s brother, Kevin lives in
Katy, so we lived in Katy for a few months last year. It’s a nice community with
houses in our price range. We’re looking for a 4 bedroom, 2300+ sq ft home on a
lot that is 6500+ sq ft. We’ve seen a few that we like, but noting that blows us
away, so we’re waiting for more homes to go on the market.
It’s hot in Houston. Yesterday we went for a walk and according to the iPhone
app, the temperature was 96 degrees, 48% humidity, “feels like 103 degrees.” The
kids don’t seem to notice much and I don’t usually mind- once you’re drenched in
sweat it’s all the same.
Unpacking the truck went well. Bruce, Laurel, and I did most of it in about 3
hours. Some of the furniture took a beating. Both couches that I recovered have
tears from the tie down straps, so I’ll have to partially strip them and recover
them. Our other couch has a hold in the back from the scooter muffler rubbing
it. I’ll have to try to find material if I ever want the back in the open. I was
pretty ticked when I saw it, but I have the fabric for the recovered couches
and hopefully it goes quickly.
