Non-stop rain

Since last night, the rain has continued to pour and flood most of the metropolis. The kids have been out of school for 3 days out of 5. And on Monday, it's a national holiday again. Wow, long weekend, but very WET since the weather bureau has warned to expect continuous rains over the next three days.

On the positive side, it's very cool, at times cold, and it's kept everyone at home mostly. But with the kids in the house, they're getting wild about being trapped inside and you can only huddle in bed for so long.

I hope damage will be as minimal as possible in areas prone to flooding and landslides. And with government kinda short in funds lately, following the mid-term elections, they're gonna have to scrounge for funds to give out relief goods, relocate, conduct rescue missions, etc.

I'm really thankful for God's grace and mercy that he watched over my dad's journey from his long bus trip and kept us all safe and warm with a roof on our heads, albeit one that leaks in certain places.

I'm getting to the creative part soon...
