Flood , Flood Go Away! Don't Ever Come Again!

No: 62-10

September 26,2022

The storm was over but floodings in our area is just about to begin coz of few dams open their gates to release some waters. Our place is a catch basin of waters coming from the North which was the main area affected by the recent storm. We are also near the river that aggravated the situation coz it is now shallow coz of the eruption of Mt. Pinatubo decades ago , it was filled with sands and lava from the said volcano. So after a heavy rain , floodings is a normal occurrence.

As of 10 in the morning , water was just starting to flow from the canal and now it already occupied the whole yard. We are busy now organizing our things and put everything upstairs. Such as the carpets , chairs and our christmas tree that was just put and decorated last week.Huhu!

My husband send my cousin and Aunt who celebrated her birthday yesterday to nearest terminal so they could go back to Manila safe and sound. And boy! This is the situation of our road currently. Water are now overflows in the road and it's getting higher.

My first grader Mateo is singing " Flood , flood go away , don't ever come again coz i want to go to school and be with my mates and friends!" hahaha! But sadly their classroom which was recently elevated a week ago is also now flooded. His Teacher sent us a picture of their classroom a while ago.

Haist a week of no classes again for sure. It always sadden me when my childs schooling has to compromise due to such reasons.

Geez! I should ready myself for a hard workout in the coming days coz we will do a lot of cleaning after this flood. Oh! back ache once again and sore hands for scrubbing and disinfecting.

We are spared from the heavy rains but floodings? naaah , somehow progress has a collateral. Neglecting the primary reasons of floodings in our area and only focusing on the temporary solution which was elevating the road.

Don't mean to rant coz we are used to this scenario's but sometimes i can't help but feel sad and make a wishful thinking that hopefully someday , somehow in the future , things will change for the better.

That someone from the higher office will look into the problem and find the right solution for the floodings, the real and permanent solution and not a temporary one that would just waste government funds that is actually coming from us.

Anyway, that's it for now. I should pack and arrange more things for now coz the water is really getting higher. Be safe everyone and to @UsagiGallardo215whose location is in a more serious floodings , be safe sis ! I guess it is much better if you relocate. Hope you are all ok , especially the kids.

Thanks for your time folks. To all my Sponsors " Salamat ng Marami" as always!
