Man - everything is just cr-azy - seriously, by this time things are supposed to be settled from Christmas/New Year, yeh?
Well it ain't. I got into work today, and we'd been flooded. The roof had leaked during this massive hail storm that we got on New Year's Eve. We almost had a white Christmas 'coz there was that much hail - it COVERED the ground - in some places, a couple of feet deep.
So anyways, we had to move out of our building temporarily, we've gotten into the main block for three days while the carpet gets dried at work.
My family and I had been away at a friend's farm for New Years, we had a good time - I went riding, Domino was good, I rode Rusty and he was good too, but he got a bit lame. I also got a turn on Tom, who belongs to the fellow who looks after the farm. He was a Standardbred too, a nice forward-going ride. He actually reminded me of Tango, so much so, I wanted to put Tom in my pocket and take him home!
But besides the horses, I got a ton of art work done which was cool. Really though, I was aiming to tell about what happened when we got home.
We didn't have a front porch - it was buried in chip bark and soil from our garden. Water had come under the front door and puddle in our step-down lounge, underneath the recliners. My sister's and mine bedroom had water too - unfortunately the water seeped under the doors - water came under the side door, and under the book case we keep in front of the door. So we can't open that one - hopefully it dries out quickly without going moldy. And the sliding door let in water under my computer desk. Nothing was damaged which was great, but I know the case was not the same for many others. Gee, it wouldn't be a very nice surprise to come home to from holidays though!!
That's all from me now,
Ciao, TinkaBell. :3
