If you've been looking at the weather maps, you know that we've been really getting rain! I guess Becky has been too. I don't remember when I've seen so much water. It has been raining 4,5,6 and 9.5 inches (last night). We aren't in a bad place, but some of our neighbors have really had problems.

We have still more work to do on the installation of the hot water heater in AL. I think I remember reading somone's suggestion about getting water from the lake to flush the toilet. That's not a thing we can do; it's about 100 yds from the mobile home to the lake. It's just too far to carry water buckets. We do have a spigot just outside that we can use to fill the buckets, and that's what we do. The water skiers keep the mud stirred up too much to bathe like we used to do.

I know ya'll have missed the cyberbreaks, because I have too. We need a good peach cobbler with vanilla ice cream! You know where to find your drinks. lottie77

P.S. The store where we bought the appliances sent us a $50. gift card for our troubles.

First I was worried about you with all that bad weather.Very happy to hear you are high and dry.

At least the appliance store realized that they owe you something.That was a nice gesture.Sometimes they do nothing!

Thanks for the goodies--and yes you've been missed.You always make my mouth water. martha

It's really good to have you back - to say nothing of the cyber treats! You have been missed. Tell Elder Sis we miss her too. Is she at home or in Virginia? Sure glad you haven't had problems with all that rain - if we had 9 inches here all at once, I'd be bailing out the house! I've done that once - don't want to do it again. Hope you get a chance this week-end to just relax - and enjoy the fruit of your labors! Rosemary

Hi Lottie..

We have been having rain, but not quite as much as you describe. We have had thunder and lightning and this computere doesn't know whether it is coming or going.

Yumm I love peach cobbler. Is it made with those delicious GA peaches?

Stay high and dry and hope you get everything installed and working real quick..

Becky
