when i got to work, form the way everybody made it sound, it's pretty serious
i have the swamp in my backyard. But what really sucks is that there is a river across the street that river has a very strong current headed straight towards my house were it not for the land (it bends there) so if it gets high enough that the river rises up to land levels, combined with whats gonna be pouring down that river my house would get washed away
but i'm at the highest point of this low area, so it might not be so bad
mostly i'm worried about the animals i need to find shelter for if my house gets destroyed then maybe it was time, but then i also hear i might be back to work in a few weeks so who knows
i gotta admit the way everybody at work made it sound today actually made me nervous, like 90% chance of losing my home, if the river level rises to my house its fucked
but i dont know. Part of me still doesn't think its going to be bad at all
it's just surreal. Obviously people go through a lot worse shit, and if it is that serious then perhaps its for the best. I accept but its just surreal and , with just a little bit of

thanks, I appreciate it, but dont have me in your thoughts, i'm gonna be staying at my friends, i'll be fine. I don't exactly believe in prayer, never been religious, but I do believe in intent so have my animals in your thoughts
I mean I know death is natural and floods wipe out populations sometimes but domestic animals seem to be of a different walk, and I can't help but care for mine like family

hell yeah. Believe me, there's nothing I'd rather do.
Unfortunately it's looking like a mandatory evacuation, fishing has to stop on tuesday, and probably boats soon thereafter. I know a canoe doesn't cause wake but word of mouth is the national guard will be here etc. I really wish I could just get take some mescaline and go around in a canoe checking out a very surreal and probably impressive scene.

I grew up on a farm, so I understand the feeling. My grandpa always kept like 25 black angus catttle and I swear he treated them better then me lol. On the bright side you seem to have a really good attitude about the situation, all things considered. Keep us posted.

I don't live in a flood zone
I live right next to the river (with a STRONG current) that is supposed to get 50% of this stuff. If the river overflows my house is pretty much fucked, it's pretty much coming right at me.
lol no I don't have flood insurance, but hopefully we will get some kind of FEMA aid or something because my not-so-flood zone is about to be intentionally flooded, but at least it's to minimize total damages
i'll be safe so I'm not too worried, but every bit of news I get makes it seem intensely serious, and I'm half expecting to lose my home entirely (my town was the first in the entire region told to evacuate.) . It just feels weird man 
but I'm gonna try to make it the best thing that could possibly happen to me

Try to get some pics of your place and the river as it is right now to give us some sort of idea of what is going on right now, if possible.

well I live in the area that they are directing the worst of it to (from what I gather) to prevent more widespread disaster

I would imagine that you could, but they would probably charge you out the ass for it.
