Rising Waters: Dry Shoes are Totally Underrated — 10 Comments

  1. I really really feel for your perseverance and strength Maria!. My house isn’t large but I honestly wouldn’t know where to start on saving stuff.
    I constantly think I will start being organised and sort all the boxes of photos out putting the most important ones into albums. Then I will sort all the paperwork out and bring some sort of order to drawers and cupboards. Well maybe I will do it tomorrow!!!
    But in your case you didn’t know if you would have the luxury of leaving it for tomorrow.
    I’m so thankful that for your sake it wasn’t any worse in the end and hope and pray that you never have to face that again.

  2. I am a beta… it’s that simple. You, my dear are an alpha and I bow to you. I do not know what I would have done. I know that during tough times… we pull from deep within us a courage and stamina that we don’t even know we have. I am so awed by your courage, tenacity and creativity in the face of a crisis. We have always lived on high ground. Our fears here are tornado. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and feelings as you went through this crisis.

  3. Wow. Another exciting installment of “Events you wish you had not been forced to endure” in your own terrific style. So glad you got through it, and prayers that such an event does not happen again!

  4. Wow. I’m just so glad that you all made it out okay. These details and your emotions remind me so much of our packing to evacuate from the fires here in 2003 and 2007–which were the worst fires in California history until this summer’s firestorm in Northern California.

    Thank you for sharing your thoughts and experiences with us.

    Warmly,
    Susanne 🙂

    • I have to think that no matter what the threat, there’s got to be a lot of similarities in the feelings of having to abandon your home and run for safety. I’m sorry you’ve gone through that.

  5. My heart goes out to all the islands and states/countries affected lately by forces of nature. Hard to imagine. We live up on a knoll so I can’t imagine water reaching us. Hope the rest of the story is about safety for you and your neighbors.
