Oh what a night!


Mom and Dad to the rescue!
Even until last night, Mom and Dad were still helping me around the house. I was banned from getting wet, so I didn't get sicker than I am.
Luckily the rain eased overnight and finally stopped. Very cloudy skies this morning, but no more rain. Possible showers for today.


We have a tiny, baby Native Minah bird that is very tame and it found a little spot on the verandah to huddle. A little while later, I heard a tapping and it was banging against the glass door. I hope it survived the night.

I am sorry to hear that you are not feeling well, not a good idea to get all wet at all! And was that ever wonderful of your parents to kick in and help out like they did!

My Mom and Dad are amazing. Dad is 70 and Mom 65, we were all laughing as last night on the news, they had said that everyone should look after the 'elderly.' Mom phoned up from the cottage to say "Hey, we are the elderly."
My reply: "You will never be old!"

As we say here in South Africa: Eeeish!
Mom and Dad were playing at being kids again in the rain (but seriously it was great that they were there to help - as always - lucky you!).
Been watching the Channel 9 News on the web and some of the damage is really bad, even a car that ended up in the waves at Surfers Paradise. So in many ways you guys got off lightly. They say more is on the way so hang in there and be safe.
