By the Grace of God my DS's off days were Sunday, Monday and today. He called his sergeant and told him that he'd be willing to come in and help if they needed him. I have to admit that I prayed hard that they wouldn't ask him to come in and they didn't. It's so dangerous out there.

The schools are still closed today. One elementary school in Powder Springs is completely under water!

I thought about you, too, Pam and hoped ya'll were okay. I know all this weather comes through your area first (usually). I'm glad to hear that you're safe.

I tried to start a thread yesterday about this, but I goofed and put Southwest instead of southeast..

Take Care, Y'All..

What is it about Georgia? Wasn't your state in the drought of the century a year or so ago? Now you are under water??? And they say everything is bigger in Texas! I think that fits Georgia with precipitation (or lack of)! Just a little attempt at humor there.

I think it was about 8 years ago when Hurricane Ivan made it clear up to Pittsburgh (not at hurricane force). We had tremendous flooding but it only lasted a day. It was devastating to so many who lost everything. I can't imagine days of it. That would be terrifying. I pray that your rain lets up really soon and that you don't have any damage from it.

It hasn't rained all day here today. I hope I didn't just jinx it by saying that. We need a few warm days to dry everything out. The ground is so saturated that large trees are now falling everywhere. Luckily I have no large trees directly beside my house.....just smaller Bradford Pears, Dogwoods and a few Crepe Myrtles.

Hopefully this nightmare is coming to an end.

Kitty so glad you are safe. I will keep praying for everyone near and in the flood waters.

I haven't heard from our aunt yet. I am on it trying to get information. I saw a pic of Mableton and some houses were covered to the roofs. I am sure the lines are down too so that's why it's so hard to get a hold of her.
