Flower Power Week 10
Well things have been very crazy around here. I’m not really sure what week I’m on now, but I’m going to go with Week 10. We evacuated August 30th – September 3rd for Hurricane Gustov. Which missed us and hit somewhere around Morgan City in Louisiana. Then we turned around and evacuated September 11th – September 18th for Hurricane Ike which nailed us. My house/property received minor damages. For example the trampoline flew away, the swing set was picked up and slammed back into the ground and busted our roof looks a little funny, but we were very blessed! The storm surge stopped just about 2ft from my house. The city to the south of my house has about 3,000ish houses and only 14 were not flooded. The college where I work took on anywhere from 3 1/2 ft of water to 3 inches of water in 7 of 8 of our buildings. My mother-in-laws house had about 2 1/2 – 3 feet of water in it.
We are just now going back to work today normal hours, and our classes are not starting back up until October 6th. Things are a little crazy around here.
During this time I manages to do some work on Flower Power, just not as much as I had hoped. So here’s my progress

How georgeous! I’ve had this in my stash for ages and sometimes I can hear it calling to me. I don’t have much time for stitching now, though. I’ll just have to live vicariously through your pictures!
