Flood update! By now you have all seen the news, Ford nation aka Etobicoke got hit the hardest! It's a good thing we cancelled as the roads were unpassable . Dave had to leave his new audi at the side of the road (since recovered) because he could not drive through the 2km lake into our neighbourhood. I hope you all turned back safely, we had no power from 5:45pm onward until 9:00am this morning, therefore I could not send an email blast informing people not to come, then I went to calling and texting but even that was not reliable as I got Christine's machine both home and cell, Carolyn's machine and when we talked we got cut off 3 times due to blackberry and wireless being down. And jacqueline's machine....So ladies in this digital world I hope you all were safe. We had no way of communicating without power or wireless networks. So The cottage will just have to be epic. Does everyone want to discuss the Interestings in August at the cottage and move everything forward a month so Natalie's will be next month's read? Also we can tack Dawn hosting on to the end of our cycle? Please weigh in on which option you prefer:#1 discuss two books in August, #2 Discuss the Interestings in August and move everything ahead by a month. I finished the book because I chose it but others may not have.
Also please give home number, cell and email in your comment so we can reach out during disasters. Also feel free to share your story, we have a flooded basement that we continue to clean out tonight. We have power going on and off still. Hope everyone is safe, the silver lining to our basement flood is a forced purge of all our crap. Loss= Dave's vinyl record collection from the 60s and 70s. They are drying throughout our house! Ford better knock on my door to see if we are okay!
