Peaceful and Safe...


My dear husband has finally fell asleep after working non-stop day and night since 6am Tuesday morning. We have had historic flooding in the Pacific Northwest and the rain continues to fall but is starting to let up ever so slightly. The roads, lakes, rivers, pump stations, etc...are all slowly coming back to safe levels. So Ted has finally left the Emergency Response Center. I am so happy that he has finally fallen asleep with his dog and blackberry by his side. The only problem is that he fell asleep on the couch in the family room and we have an open floor plan. Which means I can't do anything right now. No laundry, vacuuming, dishes...
Wait. Did I say that was a problem???
No I mean Hooray! I can go read my new book without any guilt knowing I am helping my husband sleep peacefully. .

p.s. Maddie does not sleep well when Ted is gone at night so she is happy to have him home. And she scooted this pillow over from the other side of the room to get snuggly right bedside her big fella.
