Water...in various forms

Last Saturday, we had a thunderstorm hit the area hard and fast. Our friend who also works for us, and her daughter were out near the office when the storm hit and stopped at the office to wait it out, so she was there the minute the water started to come in under the baseboards. All of the rooms exposed to the outside wall were flooded. Thankfully, she was there when it happened and called us immediately. Thanks to a great home teacher, a good friend and neighbor, 4 shop-vacs, and 8 fans, we go it all cleaned up. We had Sunday to let it dry and get all of the equipment back in place before seeing patients Monday morning. And NO permanent damage! The landlord came and immediately had some trenches dug outside the building to alleviate any further problems Whew! What a weekend!

Cliff's cousin and his family just moved to Madison and we went swimming with them earlier this week and had a lot of fun!Here's Jason, Samantha, Jackson, Alexandria, & Tyler. What cute kids! We're excited to have some extended family close by, from Cliff's side, for a change.Me & Sonja

Ah water!! It came in through our french doors and I crammed the landing with towels. Nice storm, eh? Glad y'all got it dried out.

Can I just mention how enjoyable I find a song list that not only has Coldplay, but also manages to stick in Hilary Duff?
Nice.

It was so good to see you today. I miss seeing your smiling face.

Sorry to hear about the flooding. I am so relieved to hear it was fixed in good time though. And what a good landlord.

Hey there beautiful! This isn't related, but I want to be sure I send it to you while I'm thinking about it...

It's the video of John Mayer singing Free Fallin'. As always, he'll rock your world. Love you tonz!
