    Ladies, just want to say that my BD packages will be going out in a few days. We had a major flood, AGAIN, in our neighborhood. Thank goodness my sewing stuff was not down in the basement this time. Only lost a little fabric but lost all the other stuff that is normally in a basement. Our 5ft deep above ground pool was very close to being covered by the flood waters. The water is going down but it will take weeks or months to get bak to normal. Well, need to get some calls made.

    We went through this two years ago too, almost to the day. We never had this until the built a golf course a couple streets over. They took a flood plane for the golf course and gave us flooding problems and sewer back up problems.
    I am waiting for a clean up crew now. But they are still waiting for the waters to recede.

    Ladies, thanks for the prayers!
    It looks like everything is going to have to be gutted. Walls, furnace,hot water tank,washer, dryer, the works! And I lost my two cutting tables. One we hadn't even put together yet. I am so happy that I brought my "candies" up to look at the other day. I had them on my cutting table in a box. I wanted to take my time to look at all of them. So i took them upstairs to look at and touch, so glad i did. My plans are to make myself a quilt out of them. never made myself a quilt before, they are usually for kids in my life. But that will be put on hold now. There is going to be far more important things to do.
    I wouldn't wish a flood on my worst enemy!!! We not only have the house but the yard and garage to clean up.
    Thanks for listening.
