Well I'm here in Dallas for work. I left around 1PM and got here by a little after 4PM so it wasn't too bad. The only scary part was when I was on I-20, there was a severe rain storm up ahead and it was really coming down hard at one point. I stayed on the road and just slowed down to about 45 mph. It was foolish to go any higher than that. I got through that area okay although one car started coming into my lane by about a foot or more and I slowed down to make sure I stayed clear of them. I couldn't totally fault them because as I said it was coming down hard. I had my windshield wipers all the way up and still could hardly see. I finally drove out of it a few miles up the road. It didn't get bad any more after that although the sky looked threatening for a while. I kept scanning the temperature on the way up. The range was from 96 degrees to 102 degrees (outside). It was probably lower too through the rain storm but quite frankly I wasn't concerned with the temperature right then!
Hubby is taking care of my mom's dinner - he is such a sweetie pie!! And he's also taking care of the furkids of course. Instead of sneaking out, I made sure I said goodbye to each dog. I especially took Tika's face in my hands and gave her a kiss on her nose. She really misses me a lot when I'm gone.
I had a nice dinner at the hotel here and now I am going to relax for the rest of the evening. A few other co-workers are due in but not until 7:30-8:30PM or so. I am not sure if I'll hear from either of them this evening but I am the one driving over to the office tomorrow morning since I'm the one with a car. I hope to have a great day tomorrow! There are a lot of people I don't know and it would be nice to be able to put a face with a name. I'm sure there are some who would like to meet me too.
I might read some this evening too as I brought the last book (so far) in the Fever series with me - Burned.
