[ September 11, 2006 ]

so it's been rainy and stormy in newie for the past week or so. so much rain that i'm sure it physically can not rain anymore - although the clouds in the sky tell another story.
last night after having a bunch of friends over we had all settled into bed and were very much asleep when awoken by a noise. Kath got up first, Beck and I laying in our beds thinking- ˙ep, we could get up but it's so nice in bed.. - and then i hear a 'holy shit' from down the hall, leap up to find that the tree that had been creaking and stratching at the roof all evening had fallen on the house!!! how dangerously exciting! so i call the SES and tell them that we have a 'situation'. they came and said it should be ok until the morning so they will come back..... so here i am waiting at home for them to come back..... waiting waiting waiting.... i don't really mind that they are not here yet, they are volunteers and the guy last night said they'd had 73 call outs since tuesday - they must be buggered...
