Flood

Our den flooded last night during the storms. Our carpet was soaked. Thankfully, none of the furniture was affected. We ripped the carpet up - it was nasty. Now I have concrete down there. I almost wish that I could get someone to stain the concrete and leave it like that.. but that might be more expensive than carpet, honestly. Carpet is just nasty though. I was so stressed out. Here the den was nasty wet - Britt was coming home early so we could work on it. John was here ready to help. Britt ran out of gas on the way home. Are you kidding me? When he called and talked to Elijah - Elijah said "Mom, dad needs you to bring him the gas can". I SERIOUSLY thought he was joking. Again, another time for me to get back down on my face and thank God for the blessings and put this all back in his hands. Maybe I am being too controlling so he is trying to remind me that no matter how hard I try to control and dictate, it's all out of my hands so I need to give it up to him anyway.
Hannah is doing lifeguard certification this week. I am so proud of her! I never would have had the guts to do that when i was a kid. She amazes me. Now she will be able to work as a lifeguard this summer. What a cool job! I worked at a place called Burgers Plus when I was her age.. and YES - it was a glamorous as it sounds.. :)
