Really Lee?

Today was quite a day!

I woke up at 6am to my cell phone ringing. The sub service was calling.. Really? Today of all days? When it's ya know...pouring, and flooding...and all the school's near me are closed...? REALLY?

haha..Needless to say, I said no thanks..I thought I would be babysitting anyway...which I ended up not doing. It was good to stay inside today though. We lost power at about 6:30 am until about 3:30 pm... Out here (I'm not used to living in no-where land) when the power is out, you have no water either. blehh...noooo fun. My biggest concern was no toilet flushing..ha. But thank GOODNESS it didn't last long.

I feel like I've been stranded in the house for so long...even though it really hasn't been that long.

Weather messing up plans is just one of the most frustrating things sometimes. I just hope the weekend things I'm doing will still be able to happen...!

Praying for those whose homes were really flooded..we were very fortunate on that front, since the house is on a hill. And for those in droughts! Stay stafeee. <3

Rain, Rain, Rain

Is it raining where you are?

Well...it is flooding here where I am.

My plan today since I didn't have to babysit was to go to some district offices and drop things off. I was thinking about going to the gym, you know...low key things such as those.

BUT HOLY COW is it raining! I guess it hasn't really stopped since yesterday and it was really pouring. A lot of the roads around here are flooding =/ The schools even let out early..! I took that as a hint that I should stay home.

I had even gotten so far as putting my nice clothes on and "doing" something to my hair...

oh welll. Instead I got changed and Courtney and I went out to take pictures. There is a little (well normally little) creek in their yard...and it turned into a LAKE! It took up so much of the yard. We could have literally gone swimming. =p Since the rain has slowed down a little, it has gotten back to a creek but whew...! What excitement.
