If It's Not One Thing ...

* I want to thank all of you for the outpouring of support for Mocha.  She seems to be improving with her medication and we just picked up one additional med for her.  We will be watching her closely for the next few days and hoping for the best. *  

Yesterday morning was a morning of emergency helicopters and firemen attempting to evacuate/rescue people in my neighborhood.

Flooding much?

Our house is fine.  At least, as of right now, our house is fine.

* My back patio a few days ago before the worst of the rain. *

Here's a link to the ABC news clip on the events in my neighborhood from yesterday.  Sixty people were rescued, thirty houses evacuated, and five homes were "red-tagged" as being unfit for residency.

(I apologize for the 8 second ad at the beginning of the clip!)

Also?

The video is not in a format I could embed into my post.  You'll have to click here to see my neighborhood and what it has been like the past few days.

I was watching the news this morning and they were carrying on about the mudslides out there - I immediately thought about you. I'm glad to know that you are okay; they say the rains should be moving out of your area today.

I'm so sorry to hear about Mocha; I hope she is going to be all right.

I was wondering about sweet Mocha this morning. Included her in my meditations last night. Hope she keeps improving and the rains stop! Merry Christmas. xo.

I am always startled at what nature can do, even now, when we think we have conquered those kinds of things.

Oh how awful! Hope your house stays high and dry until all of this weather passes! Looks like an unhappy Christmas for some of the residents. :-(

I am happy to hear Mocha is feeling a little better. :)

Wow, what a mess! I hope this weather passes soon and that your house doesn't float away. Stay dry!

Have a very merry Christmas and enjoy your family!

Glad to hear Mocha is a bit better. Hopefully she continues to improve.

you're weather made the Canadian news up here in the Frozen Tundra!!! I'm not really sure if I would prefer the snow or rain - rain is warmish, snow freezing. Snow does not flood my house or soak me to the bon ein ten minutes...okay maybe I prefer snow, scarves were invented for a reason.

I'm also very happy to hear Mocha is doing better. She's quite beautiful!

I'm glad Mocha is doing better. My brother's yellow lab lived to be 13! I hope she gets to be that old or older. :)

As for the rain....holy crap.

Wow. When it rains, it pours. Glad Mocha is responding, and that you're holding your head above water...
