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.
