So, that was fast. The drywall is all up, in one hour. Now back to the waiting game for the finish guys to come tape/texture... which really is kinda mostly ok, because we couldn't decide ona carpet, and it'll be anywhere from 2-4 weeks before the carpet gets picked out and arrives. It's just super exciting to have something happening with the reconstruction FINALLY. Yeah! Good thing you aren't under a deadline. |

I was just reading about the weather heading your way. STAY SAFE!!! I was talking to the guy who takes care of the soccer fields last night while my son was at practice. He told me then that there wouldn't be any home games on Saturday. An email went out about an hour ago from the commissioner of the league saying the home games were cancelled this weekend because the fields were still swamps. My team has practice tonight, only our second. We will try to find someplace to practice. They will get muddy, but the good thing is that they are all waterproof. They allow practice on a field but not a game? Or do you practice on an area that is not actually a soccer field? We don't practice on the soccer fields. The fields lay low and have stayed wet. There is some grassy area that sits up on a hill in the park that most people have been practicing on. It is muddy, too, but not as muddy. Plus if we tear that area up it's not a big deal, if we tear the fields up they will be torn up for the rest of the season. There is concern too, especially with the older kids, that kids could get injured. If you have a competitive game going on in the mud where kids have been losing shoes left and right you run the risk of injuring a knee or ankle. No on wants the kids to get hurt.
I get it now! Good luck finding a dry enough spot for practice. I bet the kids get hosed down after practice before they can come in the house! LOL or at least the moms wish they did I had a blanket in the car I made my son sit on last night on the way home. He took his cleats off in the garage and headed straight for the shower. I remember those days. I always had plastic bags for the shoes to go into. No soccer shoes in the car was my rule. And always lots of towels or blankets to keep the seats dry and clean. I miss those days, but then again I don't. I'm enjoying being selfish as I get older. |

Oh No!! And the weather doesn't even sound encouraging for you to go out to eat (to avoid making dirty dishes). Hope you can get both fixed with no problems. |

Master ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() ironannekidd - 2011-04-15 6:35 PM I know it's the weekend, but you guys did such a great job this morning that I need to ask for more juju. My brother is a motorcycle mechanic and a tire exploded on him this evening. My sister called to tell me he was in the ER. It banged up his knee pretty good, it's swollen and he can't bend it, they're doing x-rays. He also ripped up a couple of fingers pretty bad and they aren't broken, but he may need surgery. Apprently when it exploded it lifted him completely off the ground and dropped him, so they are x-raying his neck and back, too.
Holy cow! Good juju sent!! |

A lovely day of driving rain and tornado watches and flooding streams. Ahh! Spring in the mountains. Kendra- are you okay down there? The storms looked vicious there. I was lucky. The worst of the storms were to the north and south of me. My neighborhood got a lot of rain and wind, but we did not get the really bad lightning and hail. We were in tornado watch and then warnings for most of the night. It looks nice outside right now, I want this wind to blow all the pollen away. My allergies are killing me.
So what do you do when you're in tornado watch/warning? stay awake all night, or is there some sirens or something to tell you when to duck for cover?

Nooooo! Someone should say a few kind words. Ann? We need your wordsmithing skills!
Did you find the leak before much damage was done? |

Did you find the leak before much damage was done? Fortunately, I think we did. The dishwasher will be replaced on Monday. It is a metal roof so there is going to have to be re-flashing or some such thing done. Hopefully we won't have too much rain until we can get it done. Amy, we have a big giant siren in the valley tthat goes off if there is flooding or tornados or suck. It will scare the bejesus out of you! Otherwise, I just pay attention and go on about the day. (Unless it is really scary weather happening- hail etc.). |

Champion ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() The heavy rains have arrived. I was out earlier and the water was high then. I'm pretty sure there will be flooding tonight. We are all in the house and staying put for the rest of the night! |

Champion ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Thanks for all the juju. I talked to my brother today, nothing is broken. His knee got hit with the rim from the tire, his knee cap isn't broken, but his knee is swollen up 4x it's normal size according to him. They can't put him on crutches because his hand is all ripped up. No broken bones, but lots of stitches to put 3 fingers back together. We are starting to see animals line up 2x2 here, should I be worried? It has rained HARD for the past several hours. Gettysburg is flooding. Lots of streams and creeks are flooding. The ground is just so supersaturated from all the rain we've gotten in March and April it's just running off. My in-laws down the road have several inches of rain in their basement. They own the house next to them and that basement is flooding. My husband said you can see the water running down the hill and down their basement steps there is a stream. The water is pretty deep there. They couldn't keep up with pumping it out, they had to call the fire company in to help pump. The in-laws also own a house in town they rent out, there is over a foot of water in that basement. My husband is scrambling around trying to help everyone. The kids and I are lying in my bed playing games on the DS, my computer, and my phone. |
