am okay

[saffiter]

I'm fine, my family's fine. I think one of my cousins is trappped in rockhampton, but only because he was travelling through when the flood waters rose. We're watching the brisbane river at the moment (we're about 200m away from it) but we should be fine as we're on pretty high ground. I did a few checks and we'll stay dry at a 14m river rise.

Parents are about to get flooded in to their property just out of gympie but, again, they're on high ground and have a lot if supplies just in case.

Anyway, just thought i'd let everyone know that i'm okay since, apparently, the queensland floods have made international news. We've had family members overseas calling the house all day.

So, we're fine. Heartily sick of the rain, but fine.

Will keep you updated though, 'cause they reckon the brisbane river's supposed to flood....hopefully this isn't another '74.

Oh, and our roof is STILL leaking 'cause it hasn't been dry enough to fix it.

Tell me about the rain. :( It SUCKS. DNW. As much as I hate to say it - I;d rather the bushfires at this point, At least they don't linger for a month. Unless it's black Saturday Or you know, leave shit stinking like shit from hell. :(

-- .. the River is going to Rise? What? I missed that part of the news. :(

I can't believe i'm gonna say this, what with my allergies and asthma, but i kinda miss bushfire season.

There's been some predictions of river flood. I know today i.watched the river rise a.good 2m in 4 hours while i was at work (gorgeous view of the rover from my classroom). I'm keeping my fingers.crossed for no.
