when the flood waters rise...

I do realize it is barely still Sunday.
But this has literally been one of the most stressed weekends of my life. Really.

So work has been super stressful lately. And my living situation has been hard too. BUT. It all got worse.


I rent the basement of a house from someone, and have my own bedroom, living room/kitchen and bathroom. Friday morning I woke up to 3-5 INCHES OF WATER. I wish I was kidding. I wish I could tell you- JUST KIDDING! HAHA. Can't believe you fell for that!!!. But I am not. And I can't. I live on the floor. I just enjoy being on the floor. I do my makeup on the floor. I read on the floor. I watch movies on the floor. It's just where I feel comfortable. So my makeup, flat iron, clothes, blankets, some of my books, a lot of my stuff... completely and utterly ruined. My favorite Bible. My mat I sit/workout on. Everything. 


I have washed all my clothes and I still feel like they smell like ground water. My mattress+box spring was just chilling on the floor. Box spring is ruined. 


SO yea... I am trying to be positive about it all. 

If it was just this... you know.. I could probably be ok.





But its not. I got paid on Friday... but I had only worked 18 hours in 2 weeks. I am confused about how I feel about Geek and about church and God and stuff. Don't get me wrong. I love God and Jesus.. and am super grateful for everything they have done for me...and I know that I don't deserve the love they have for me... but apparently that's not enough. 


So. To have everything I own flood...well I don't know anymore. I seriously feel like giving up. How much bad can happen at once?

FAIL... I would like to send you a gift. It is a tool that I think you will find very valuable, especially for the unexpected situations like this one that happened to you. If you would like to receive it, let me know, I will need your address to send it. But I will be more than happy to pass the gift on, I know you will enjoy it and it will be useful.

But in regards to the post, yeah, iowa sucks like that. One time, my sub-pump didn't work and I was living in the basement and a lot of my stuff got ruined too. Check with the homeowners, their homeowners insurance maybe able to help cover some of the loss depending on their deductible and the amount ruined.

Thank gosh, I don't have to worry about my basement flooding cause nobody has basements where I live, lol.
