Bags packed for 2nd time in a week...can I just say how much I HATE rain right now?

The creek is swollen to capacity and we're due for more rain today and tomorrow. That means impassible road. That means finding somewhere else to sleep for a few days while the water is up so we can get to work and school. LAST week when this happened, we stayed at in-laws. Called hubby when i got there and told him it was a bad idea as the water was coming up there too. He didn't believe it would get deep. I didn't argue. It did. We were stuck ANYWAY! MIGHT AS WELL HAVE STAYED HOME!!!!!!! UGH!!! So now there's a big debate (AKA: Disagreement) over what we should do tonight. If I could afford a hotel, I'd just do that, but can't...so won't. :/

If it would just NOT RAIN, that would be nice.

OK....vent over.

It stinks having to do that, but....

if I lived in a place that was prone to flooding, I would have an emergency fund set aside for hotels, supplies, etc. You can't control the weather but you can be ready for it.

If I were in a place financially to have an emergency fund at all, I would. But I'm just not right now. Such is life.
