A Quick Update

Just to give a quick update.
Simple House was probably in one of the worst parts of town that Tropical Storm Fay hit.
We lost electricity (but bought a generator), therefore our water pump didn't work (because it ran on electricity). But we survived. Our field that used to be a pond years ago totally filled up!!! It actually filled up so much that we were concerned about it coming up to the house. But it stopped a few yards before the house. A couple of us washed our hair outside in the rain. It was freezing but fun! A tree fell on our dirt road blocking us in, but some help came to help us cut some of it down, giving us a way to get out. Saturday was filled with digging trenches, cutting up a tree, pumping water out of our basement, washing hair in the rain, using a generator to make baked spaghetti, and trying to keep from being bored.

So in conclusion, we have conquered Tropical Storm Fay. However, we still don't have electricity. It was fine when it was raining, but it is beginning to get hot! But we rejoice in all situations. :)
