    Oh Leslie, that is so scary. Prayers from me for sure. I do hope this
    all stops, and soon.

    Moff, been thinking about you also, when I learned that the Kansas area
    also has been having all this rain too.

    How scary. I'm so sorry to hear this. Lots of prayers and positive thoughts are being sent your way.

    My brother and his family live in Frisco,TX and I know that it's also been raining a lot there too but I don't think that it's been flooding there yet.

    Oh, Leslie, it never dawned on me that you might be in the path of this. I know how hard you have worked to make a beautiful home for your family and how devastating it can be to see all that in jeopardy. What is most important is that you and your loved ones, skin and fur, stay safe. Please take care. I pray that the rain stops and that the waters recede and that you all will be okay.

    Thank you all so much for the prayers. I do believe they're working, the waters aren't receding yet, but they're not raising. The flooding finally reached it's peak and they expect it to start receding (as long as the rain holds out) today or tomorrow. The scary part is that it keeps threatening more rain, and the chances of t-storm is pretty high. We're keeping an eye on that growing flood line to make sure it doesn't inch towards us any more.

    The pregnant girl whos house is flooded needs prayers, also if you could. She is staying at the Red Cross I believe, and they're going to cut their losses and find a new place to live. Restoring the house would cost way more then they have, so they're just leaving the house as-is. There is a kennel that's accepting flood victoms pets for free, and that's where she is keeping her 2 dogs. She's 4 weeks from her due date and she will be homeless when her baby gets here, unless, by some miracle, she finds a house and moves into it in the following weeks.

    Apparentlly this city has been in a drought for many, many years, but now there's been more rain then there ever has been. People used to pray for rain, now everyone in this city is praying for drought!

    There is a state of emergency in this city. Here's some news reports and news paper photos of the flood...check it out if you like.

    Prayers being said. I hope the rain will let up for you. The Chicago area seems to be very dry again this summer, not as bad as a couple of years ago but days and days between rains. Some parts of the country have far too much rain and others have not had enough.
    Praying for peace in the Middle East, Ukraine, and around the world.

    I've been Boo'd ... right off the stage!

    Aaahh, I have been defrosted! Thank you, Bonny and Asiel!
    Brrrr, I've been Frosted! Thank you, Asiel and Pomtzu!

    Many prayers will be said for your neighbor that they will be safe and find a place to live quickly.

    And of course, prayers for you, that the rains stop and you can remain in your home.

    I am so sorry. If the water comes to your house it will be a horrible mess it is already. Hopefully the water will recede and not get to anyones house too much. Good luck to you.

    I am so sorry that you have to go through this right now. I really hope the rain stops. My heart goes out to your neighbor too. Very sad situation.
