Flood Day

September has been a blur.

  

And now it is over.

North Carolina is not infamous for snow days, but we do get the occasional flood day.

School was cancelled and an "optional" work day was put in place for teachers. I left work early for fear they would close the last open road that would lead back to my house.

I caught up on housework.

Warm cider.

A friend.

Schoolwork.

And rest.

I need a good flood day every now and again.

As long as the water doesn't rise any closer to my porch.
