yeah i gotta take my sister to work too-she starts at 5am but at least i can come back and lay down in bed afterwards

oh a camp for S sounds exciting, im sure packing and making sure he has everything will take up abit of time in your day

no other plans for me besides taking sister to work and cleaning up

Re: not coping

Hi @outlander ... how are you going flood wise?

We are now completely cut off here ... cannot leave our little area, with no access onto the highway at all.

The Highway is closed just North and just South ... so no access to the outside world.

And the rain continues to fall. Worried that Hubby may not be able to get home tomorrow as planned.

Its also looking like I wont be able to get to my oncology appointment an hours drive to our North on Monday.

I may be able to get it changed to a tele consult, but will need to call first thing on Monday.

Phone are also an issue ... most of the day I've only had emergency calls coverage on mobile. Land line dodgy too.

Not great.

Emelia

Re: not coping

Ah geez thats not great @Emelia8
We're ok here atm. Weve had alot of rain but not overly flooded just super soggy and wet here. I cant access my horses in the car i have but thankfully others with 4wd have been keeping an eye on them. They have high grounds so i know they'd be relatively safe. Theres a few roads blocked off but most places are still accessable as long as you drive slowly and watch for those hidden puddles!

About an hr NW of me has been evacuated plus ive been watching the updates around like sydney and more north even though im not near there. I seen somewhere in sydney today had a mini tornado!

I think today and tomorrow is the worst of it for most areas from what ive seen on the radar so hopefully it eases and you can get out or at least have reception for your appts.

Ive seen a few of the major roads that were closed have just reopened but not sure for how long though, i think those ones were from fallen trees and landslides though and was near the tornado affected area.

Does hubby have safe places to stay till the waters subside? Are you safe enough where you are?
