Wow is right , do you have a basement and if so do you have a sump pump? I hope that it doesn't come into your home.. Keep us posted.

Btw I love your front door very pretty and the scarecrow looks great.

Thanks Gina! We don't have a basement. In fact most people in this part of the country DON'T have basements. I'm not too worried about the weather. The threat of tornadoes is passing, so now we just have to worry about flooding. There is really nothing to do about the water...if it comes in it will just come in

These are the kind of storms we have when the warm gulf air meets a cold front. It just happened to meet right over East Texas!!

WHEW! Betsi! I sure hope the rain STOPS!!!

You would think the drought is over, but we are 30 inches of rain BEHIND for the last 2 years - we are supposed to get 30 inches a year and we only got 15 each year for the last two - so even though we have had PLENTY of rain this last month, it's not nearly enough to bust the drought.

This is the way it goes in Texas most of the time, especially as Betsi said when warm gulf air meets a cold front - storms and RAIN - LOTS of it! It's either feast or famine here it seems like!

I just heard on the news where western Kansas could be getting snow....Diana...I hope it doesn't reach you yet....still a bit early.

Hey now Janet, Diana is always begging for snow in the winter - so hey, if it comes now, then she'd better just enjoy it cuz it may not come back again!!! LOL!

Well. we made it just fine!! Didn't get nearly as much rain today as they were predicting. There is still water over some of the roads, but mostly in the country. Thanks for your well-wishes!!

gja1000 · 10-31-2009, 04:37 AM

I'm glad you checked in Betsi! I was getting worried about you and whether or not the water got into the house!!!

Have a great weekend - looks like the weather will be nice for a few days.
