Hi There!!! Now, this subject explains it all. Yesterday, our director’s house was flooding. Not with rain water(we have plenty of that around here right now!!!!) but with SEWAGE water!!! You probably don’t know how bad it was. There is disese in that water. Cholera, and others that I don’t even want to talk about!!!! The water was rising evey minute, and our director said he wanted to evacuate. So we(all of the grown up action workers, and me to baby sit our directors kids) went to help them move out. I took us like two hours to get there, because we had to buy gum boots, and we had to go through 3 feet of dirty water in our car to get there. YUCK!!! Well, we got there and the water was rising at the hour!!! So I quickly hearded the two kids inside and put on a movie. That keep them distracted!!!! After that movie, I read some books to them. Then we set up Ireen’s play house. Then mom’s phone rang so I had to bring it to her. I don’t know how I got the guts to walk through that water to hand it to her!!!! Their house was surrounded with water, so I had to put on my gum boots, size seven, and tromp through the water. YUCK!!!!!!!!
After two hours of entertaining the kids, I said it was time for lunch. They were pretty happy about that. I was too. So we walked down to their new house, right down the road, and got some lunch. Ham and cheese sandwiches never tasted so good!!!! THANKS MEGAN!!!!
Well, back to the movie!!!!! We put on the movie Princess Bride, but I stopped it. Ireen was fine with it, but it was WAY to much killing for me. I said we should color. So we did. I put on a different movie and then it was time to go!!!! And you will never guess what 5-year old Ireen said to me. “ Kamryn, when our house floods again, you can come and be my baby sitter again.” SO cute!!!!
Have to go!!!
