I'm so tired...

[dreamflower]

I give up.
Jim had to leave for work a half hour ago. It's an hour earlier than usual, but if he'd waited any longer, the streets would have been imassable even for his vehicle.
There's not a dry towel left in the house. My sewing room is nearly completely flooded, as is the front bathroom. (The one where we usually shut the dogs up.) And it's started to come in through the laundry room as well. I expect the kitchen will be next...
There's nowhere left to sweep the water, nor to dump the wet-vac when it's full.
There's water everywhere.
I'm so tired...
I'm going to go sit in my recliner and try to get some rest.
Don't know what I'll do after that.

At least I still have power and internet. And *this* room is unlikely to flood, at least.

Oh dear! I just woke up to your flooding news.

*sends boat, towels, sunshine, and a herd of water-sucking oliphaunts*

[dreamflower]

Oh thank you! I can really use all that--especially the water-sucking oliphaunts!

Eeek

Surely you can get insurance or compensation for this, can't you?

[dreamflower]

Nope. Flood insurance is seperate, extra, more expensive, and darn hard to come by.

Ack! Hopefully the hobbits from grey_wonderer's Pepsi Saga are helping to bail you out!

*hugs*

[dreamflower]

Oh my word! They would, wouldn't they? *grin*

I am so sorry about the flooding. I hope that it doesn't come in any further and that the rains stop soon. If it keeps moving, do get out of there while you still can, you and the dogs. I will cross my fingers for you.

I just posted your chapter of "The Pepsi Saga" and am now on my way to work. If you don't lose internet, let us know how you are later in the day. Take care!

[dreamflower]

It seems to have dried out a bit for the time being. Hopefully it won't start up again.

I'm on my way to check out "The Pepsi Saga" post!

*hugs* That must be horrible!

[dreamflower]

Yes, it's relatively horrible. I am used to the one room flooding some, but this extent is highly unusual.

Oh my goodness! You poor love!

Definately try to get some rest for a while. I wish I could help.

[dreamflower]

I slept in my chair for a few hours. Still pretty whipped though.

*hugs dreamflower and sends hobbits with brooms and extra towels*

BTW, I now have that song stuck in my head, so I'll be thinking of you all day:

The Lord said to Noah:
There's gonna be a floody, floody
The Lord said to Noah:
There's gonna be a floody, floody
Get those children out of the muddy, muddy
Children of the Lord.

^_^

[dreamflower]

I know. It's been my earworm today too!

Thanks for the hobbits!

((Hugs)) I am sorry! I wish there was reasonable answer to keep the storms at bay and waterproof the house. Hang in there. Eat chocolate.

[dreamflower]

Hang in there. Eat chocolate
LOL! Best advice I've had yet!
