[PrincessInOz]

Go eat your dinner and let me be last for 5 minutes!

 

[DisneyFirefly]

I already ate my dinner! It was tasty!

 

[PrincessInOz]

Okay. I'm last now...however fleeting it is!

Did you want to get to page 250 tonight?

 

[DisneyFirefly]

I dunno, maybe!

Our weather forecasters are promising HEAPS of rain this Saturday; biggest rainfall since 1998. About 75 - 100 mm of rain promised in the north east of the state. We're being told to brace down in Melbourne; not quite that level of rain, but about 30 mm planned.

Hmm. I might need to go to the supermarkets early on Saturday to get cat food and stuff...

 

[DisneyFirefly]

Ew Do you guys have a basement? Does it flood when it rains like that?

 

[PrincessInOz]

We don't have a basement and our house is a little, itty-bit higher than the houses around us.

The last time a warning was issued for the state was on the day we had the really bad bush fires last year and we lost about 180 lives.

This time they are telling the farmers to move their live stock and to make sure that they have appropriate measures taken around any creeks or rivers as it is highly likely that there will be flooding.

 

[DisneyFirefly]

Well, you and your DS stay safe! I plan to hang out with you next month!

 

[PrincessInOz]

It's funny. It was only about 3 months ago when Melbourne dams were 29% full and really empty. Now, we're at 41% full and rising! At 41%, we're at the highest water storage level in 6 years! With this weekend's rain, we might well get to the 45% mark. Except for damage and potential loss of stock, I say bring it on! We really need the water.

 

[DisneyFirefly]

Yeah, that's kind of a win-lose situation The water is good, the damage/loss/etc, not so good. I just hope you guys stay safe

 

[PrincessInOz]

Thanks. We'll stay safe .

The forecast for Melbourne isn't that severe. Just rain and more rain - good for the garden. But I like to stay off the roads when that happens.

 

[DisneyFirefly]

Yeah, naturally. Well, you get to be last for a bit because I have to go walk Samson and then get started on the morning routine At least the night's almost over.

Talk to you later!

 

[PrincessInOz]

Just realised that we've chatted 6 pages today. I better log off as well and get DS and myself into BED!
North America should be getting up soon; and they can take over. Have a good walk with Samson.


is LTP

WOW! My Kids started back on August 5th

they go thru May 25th -and have a week off in Sept/Oct/Nov/Feb/Apr/and 2 weeks in Dec-makes for planning family vacations easier

If this is the one that your ticker says in 22 days, then I would think we would be well into Take 11 by then.

Yay! Thanks for pointing out that it is so close! We're going to DCA tonight to see World of Color again. This time we're seeing it from the VIP section, so hopefully we'll have a better view than the last time!
