Last weekend I had what was one of the scariest moments ever. Kristina and I took the dogs for a walk in the forest. We had a lovely walk and were just heading back to the car when Sammie went to have a swim in the stream, which was running really high after the rain. I was going to stop her but thought I was just being over protective and let her swim. She went into the water and started to swim. The current was strong and I went to call her out when her butt started being swept into the pipes that went under the bridge. Before I could even move she had disappeared under the water and into the pipe. there was nothing I could do!!! I ran to the other end of the pipe and prayed that she she would pop out the other end. It seemed like forever but she DID pop out, thank goodness. THEN it looked like she was going to swept down river. I was freaking out a little (lot) but she calmy swam to shore and then came to me and looked at me as if to say "What?"
She was completely fine!! She didn't have any water up her nose, in her ears...or anything? I was fine until I got home and then I had a bit of a meltdown.
Anyhoo, all was well and we are all fine. :-)
Life has not been exciting (other than the nearly drowned Sammie) and I am quite happy for it to stay that way after that experience. The house is nearing a state of cleanliness as I have lots of time for house work. Wheeeee!!
This weekend we went for a walk at the botanic gardens with Gill and Storm and Kristina and Georgia. We took the cart and the girls had a cart each.
Today it is wet, wet, wet so more housework was achieved. Here are some pics:
