So I think this flooding has been traumatic for some.  Even though some really didn't have any bad damage, so many seem to be very distressed about all the flooding and damage that has been done in the area.  Although Solon didn't have much for damage, a few flooded roads is about all, Duluth and Superior really had some devastating flooding.  I see a lot of concern by the friends up there.  It seems to rain every other day. Which does good things for the lawn and garden but still, we need to stain our deck, but, to get enough days where it can dry up... well maybe this week that will happen.  

I have had some rough days this week.  Lauren had a touch of the flu, and my lymph system went bazerk. I didn't wake up this morning until almost 10.  I am normally up around 8, 8:30.  It always worries EO when I sleep that late, he knows I'm having a really rough time.  

On top of it, I have a hard time following our C.O.... he talks faster than I can comprehend and process.  Tuesday I really tried to follow along.  I figured I wouldn't take notes and maybe that would help.... it didn't matter, I wasn't retaining anything anyway.  oh well.  It is still encouraging.  I think about the sacrifices he has made so that he can assist us, and it is so faith strengthening.
