Right after Hurricane Henri, the East Coast was hit by Hurricane Ida. Sadly, a number of people died, mostly from flooding.
Michael and Megan's house took some damage from flooding. They are waiting on someone to fix the walls and floor, etc. The water came into their basement via the garage, which is at the end of a slanted driveway.
Fortunately, it did not reach into their office, where Michael works from home every day. Michael does programming for some kind of police in Michigan. It is cool he can work from home, hundreds of miles away!
On another note: Mike and I had a nice lunch with John, Noreen and John Joseph today. I was happy to be able to eat half a Reuben sandwich after having stomach issues for two days. Stressing out about Julie. She has this inoperable tumor on her stomach, but it doesn't seem to bother her terribly. She eats fine and sleeps most of the day. I had thought it was her time to go, but not just yet.
We have had her over 5 years! We did keep our promise to Uncle Jimmy to take care of her as best as we could. She is such a sweet dog.
