June 13-Friday the 13th
So, you know how every where in Iowa is flooding right now? Well, that now includes my back yard. And soon, my sister's yard. My mom and I went for a walk to check on the creek (even though we could see it from our back yard, we really have to worry if it gets too far in the park across the street, cuz then it'll come down my street and flood my house...at least that's what i've been told. I was too young to remember much from the last floods). My sister's house is on the way so when we got to her house and saw that the creek was coming across the street in front of her neighbor's we called her to wake her up and tell her to move her car. While we were on the phone, the creek rose even more, and the sidewalk (which was the only way home because the back way had already been covered by the creek for hours) was completely covered for a couple yard-lengths (yard as in a house and a yard, not as in 3 feet). So I walked through the people's yards to get home, and my sister's staying here for now. Oh yeah, and our sump pump isn't working right now. So, yeah. We're screwed.
