With all the rain we have had, I woke up this morning a little nervous about the afternoons rain. Maddie and I went to kinder gym for the first time with Leah and Grace and Maddie thought it was pretty good, especially when I wasn't holding onto her trying to stop her from running away. As I am still unwell I found it hard to project my voice well to talk to people, and I found that I was more tired than Maddie after it. When we got home and I put her down for a sleep I did my first trip outside to try save the shed.The shed flooded in December 2010 just before Maddie's christening, which was a massive clean up and as I laid all the carpet squares I thought I would try just about anything to prevent it happening again. I managed to keep the drain cleared and water under control until the last time I went out there just before going to schnitzel night with the Morgans, when it proceeded to pour down and the drain couldn't cope anymore. At this stage the shed isn't too bad, but it will need some clean up work and drying out next week.
I really need to get out more, as the river rising is something that really excites me. In the third picture you can see what we looked at while we had dinner. The footpath is completely under the water there, and the reeds started to go under as we were eating.
