Gotta love the rainy days???

Chicago’s a bit submurged at the moment.  Well, obviously not all of Chicago…but when you’re driving past a city park and happen to see a lake in it’s place with hand rails sticking out where the pool should be…yeah, you know it’s been a bad weekend.
Duo, Selphie and I felt the urge to get out of the house today and went for a fun afternoon for some indoor, cosmic-like miniture golf.  The travel both there and back was crazy.  Detour in both directions due to streets needing sand bags for the ever rising river.  Even yesterday when I was at my mom’s house to clear out the garage, I had to leave my shoes there to dry.  It was like we never got rid of that pool in the back yard.  Except, in a pool there’s a solid ground to place your feet, not soggy ground to loose your shoe in!  Needless to say, I refused to come back over today to take out her garbage. (She has a hard time with stairs)  I’m hoping that tomorrow is a better, drier day so I can go back to help.  The house goes on the market as of tomorrow, Monday.  It’s just a waiting game now to find the right buyer.  Hopefully luck will be on our side and the house will sell quick.  After the past 5 years, especially, my mom can definitely use a break.
