Staying high and dry...

The weather continues to be crazy here. Below are some pictures from our adventure a couple of hours ago. These are pics of the Coweeman River. My dad said water was up to the bridge when he left the lab so we had to go check it out. It's expected to crest at 4 am tomorrow. Scary!



I'm so thankful Joe and I are staying high and dry even though the neighborhood behind us is totally flooded. My mom heard all of the residents had to be evacuated by boat. It's bad. Thank goodness the developer of our neighborhood was smart and built us up higher!

The weather this winter has really screwed up lots of plans! I thought that would end with the snow yet it continues. We were going to go down to see my sister and Sophie today but my mom didn't want to be on the road. I was going to go myself but I don't trust myself driving when it's so nasty and dark out. Haha, do I sound like I'm 85 or what?! Hopefully that problem will be better next week....I went to the eye doctor yesterday and I get contacts next Thursday. I've never worn glasses (not consistently anyway) and I've never had contacts, so we'll see how it goes. I might be able to read signs now and drive at night. YAY! :) Tomorrow we're supposed to meet with the wedding coordinator but that will probably get cancelled too. :( Oh well, I guess that should be the least of my worries. I can't imagine having to evacuate our house or being outside sandbagging everything.

Hope everyone is staying dry!
