    Coffee's Ready, Come and Sit on the Porch

    Wind storm last night to go with the rain. Somehow we kept our power when most places around have lost it. It flickered off 8 times before it stayed. Graham town center (the strip malls since Graham isn't a real town) kept power so everyone from South Hill is coming for groceries and...

    In Pacific. Almost flooded the route hubby takes to work. Wasn't as bad as they feared but still bad. Someone drove onto a flooded road in Snohomish and died.

    Hubby told me that singing "When the Levee Breaks" is inappropriate. It's been stuck in my head for a week. Heavy rain tends to do that to me. It wasn't my fault and they've patched the levee with a lot of big sandbags that should hold until flooding slows and more permanent repairs can be made.

    Mom had given me all the metal spice cans from her cupboard. She refilled the things for years. This one is the best. It's from 1972 which means she got it from grandma or great grandma.

    1.30 inches since midnight. Im so done. Hubby took the only available route to work. They are open but landslides in the area. Lots of people evacuated by police before dawn just down in Orting. Puyallup river levee is holding. Carbon river on the other side is flooding parts of town. This is...

    Stream is about 60 feet from the edge of the tall grass to left. It's overflowed. About 40 feet into the short grass I mow. Water runs about 200 feet in a low laying area there. Water is about up to my knees by the grass. Made for a pretty picture.

    I was told it was for sitka by a friend of hubby. Looks like they were very wrong. I went and looked it up. Rule restriction is for the Columbia whitetail which are protected. Im more used to mule deer from the east side of the state or the blacktails that annoy us here.

    It was only a few years ago the law went into effect here. Have to call it into fish and game and let them know. There are exceptions for the few counties where sitka deer are. No taking roadkill there. They are afraid there would be poaching. We have blacktail and elk

    Took forever to get hubby to give up the high and tight. Part of it was that the barber on base didn't really know how to do them. It's more marine/navy thing. Hubby just didnt have enough hair on top for it anymore. I buzz him now

    What's for dinner?

    Tacos. Easy and quick. I didn't feel like doing much after hauling chicken feed and making sure they were good for a couple days in case in floods too much between the house and pens

    It's at least half an inch a day for the next many days. We rain often here, but not normally lots of rain. The forecast said to expect a months worth of rain with this system. Thats 8-9 inches for December on average. Mom isn't comprehending the amount because that's her average annual rainfall.
