On Tuesday of this week, we got somewhere between two and three inches of rain in a short period of time. The night prior, many of the local schools canceled classes in anticipation of the storm. I scoffed to myself thinking that “back in my day” a little water and wind wouldn’t have kept us out of school. We would have been in the hallway in the “kiss your butt goodbye” position waiting for the storm to pass. That was the eighties and nineties, it was a lawless time. I still thought it extreme to cancel school, but after the onslaught of precipitation and areal flooding we got, I’d say they made an appropriate call.
Wow! We just had one of our sump pumps go out also! Lowes trip also! Remember we never got a school day off in FL for bad weather unless it was a hurricane!! I do remember getting under my desk for atom bomb drills in the early 60’s, like that would have helped!!! lol 😂. Always enjoy your reads. Thanks for sharing. Love and hugs from me and Glenna!
