How souless do you have to be to steal from someone at a time like this?

That's how it was here after Katrina. Natural disasters bring out the worst in people sometimes

The best and the worst.
They are still predicting more water. Even when it stops here it comes down from the mountains.

I'm OK,but Jo is near the Flood being in the Toowoomba area,I am worried about my sister too,she is in Ipswich,it is flooded there too! ~ I am higher up,but it never floods here because the ground is hilly!(it is not flat like the places that have flooded! I survived 1974 floods,it was a lot off swimming!lol!) ~ I can not contact my sister because they have turned all the power off in Ipswich!

Jo and Karima, that's so scary. I hope your families and friends get help soon, and you two must stay dry

~ I can not contact my sister because they have turned all the power off in Ipswich! Oh Karima! I will keep you and your sister in my thoughts. Keep us updated. I am anxious to hear from Jo today and see how she is... and her friend she talked about.

I'm fine. I am in one of the better areas of the town, which is why the evacuation centre is down the road and the chopper relief takes off at the truck area across the road from us. Thing sure is noisy, it's warming up right now. karima, thoughts and prayers to your sister, does she have a mobile? I just rang my Dad and the water is still about the same, near the top of his lower step. Bit too early yet to try and ring my friend. I wasn't saying her name in case she wouldn't want to be known, but I just remembered she has a picture up on a Gymboree message board. Her name is Leanne and her post is the second down on this thread: www.gymbofriends.com/international-gymbofriends/1023118-leanne-spenderella.html With a picture of her three daughters. I think I said two. Oops, forgetting the baby! Sorry Savannah! Brisbane, Ipswich and Toowoomba are worse off than us. Dad was telling me more about that wall of water, I kind of wish he hadn't. It even destroyed some houses.
