San Antonio Rain Storm

Last night we had our first storm since being in San Antonio. I was woken up around 3:30 from some pretty bad thunder and lightning. The kitties were kinda scared, and jumped a few times at some of the popping. Our power went out a few times, three probably. I was freaking out about whether our stove was leaking gas into the apartment (Never had a gas stove before) and it got really hot which made it impossible to go back to sleep. I fell back asleep around 5 am. The good news is that Anthony's platoon woke up around 4:30 and a female Sargent came in and told them to all go back to bed until 6:30 because of the weather conditions. I know that made him happy! Living here so far has it's up and down moments. It can be extremely boring at times, because we're broke at the moment, and one can only entertain themselves so many ways within the confines of a hotel room. I would go down to the pool - but the psycho neighbor who has a crush on Scarlett may just start stalking us again..... Things will get better once Anthony's pay gets fixed (they have been paying him as an E2 instead of an E3) and we receive our backpay - and once I get my car accident injury settlement. Once Scarlett leaves though, I will probably drive myself quite insane. Today we went to the bookstore for entertainment, though we have no money to buy anything! We have to save our money for food and gas for this weekend with Anthony. I am just thankful that we are close together right now. We could be 1,000+ miles apart. God is good, and is showing us the true meaning of happiness by allowing us to simply be together.
