Flooded - Überschwemmt
Dear friends,
no
crochet to show... We've had the basement flooded twice this week.
My
crochet hook is still laying where I dropped it late Monday afternoon
when my eldest yelled: „There's water everywhere!“
Within
minutes after he came upstairs to have a little chat and say
goodnight, the basement was flooded. We've been fighting ever since,
had very little sleep and more on our hands than we can handle
really, but we're coping (and hoping each downpoor and thunderstorm
may pass without another flooding).
My
eldest is camping in the studio ever since his basement-appartment
was flooded. Most of his furniture was ruined. What we could save
(from his appartment as well as from the supply and storage rooms)
are heaped in the living room.
I
cannot tell when I'll have time to do some crochet again, but: I'll
keep in touch!
Liebe Freunde,
Da
unser Keller diese Woche zwei mal unter Wasser stand, habe ich nichts
Häkeltechnisches vorzuweisen...
Meine
Häkelnadel liegt sogar immer noch genau dort, wo ich sie am Montag
Spätnachmittag habe fallen lassen, als mein Großer plötzlich
schrie: „Wo kommt denn das ganze Wasser her!?“
Innerhalb
der Viertelstunde, die er nach oben kam, um noch ein wenig zu
plaudern, bevor er Gute Nacht sagte, ist der Keller vollgelaufen.
Seitdem sind wir im Einsatz - Rund um die Uhr. Schlafmangel ist aber
unser geringstes Problem, denn so lange sich die Wetterlage hält,
droht der Keller bei jedem Regenguss und erst recht bei jedem
Gewitter erneut voll zu laufen...
Mein
Großer hat sich im Atelier einquartiert - seine Kellerwohnung ist
ruiniert. Was wir aus der Kellerwohnung und dem/n Vorrats- und
Abstellräumen retten konnten stapelt sich nun im Wohnzimmer.
Wann
ich wieder zum Häkeln komme, ist schwer vorher zu sagen, aber: Ich
halte euch auf dem Laufenden!
How terrible! We've had some water in our basement too (50 buckets!), but it's not as bad as your story sounds...
AntwortenLöschenI hope the sun will come soon and stay for a while!

Thank you, dear Anna! Sunny spells and no rain today so far - I do hope it'll stay like this. Even though it's not fun, we've still been lucky - others have lost everything!
LöschenHave a nice Sunday though,
Marjan
So sorry to hear this! I hope it is over soon. Glad you all are safe.

LöschenSorry about these bad News . I wish you to have better time and weather.
AntwortenLöschenThank you, dear Bluettine. We've been flooded yet again yesterday... Thus no time for leasure yet either...
LöschenHello dear Marjan, I am so sorry to hear about your flood. I know this can be quite devastating and so irritating. I hope that you are doing better. Maybe you have had time to enjoy your crochet? Wishing you the very best. Hugs, Pat
AntwortenLöschenHi Pat,
LöschenThank you very much! I did try some crochet but I find it hard to concentrate and slow down. My mind is spinning and I'm extremely tense.
Hope you have a wonderful Sunday,
Marjan
