Drama

Drama, drama, drama. I've had an interesting, kind of stressful, couple of weeks. So, to top it all off I returned to my apartment late Sunday night to find that my bedroom floor was sopping wet. Thankfully Donnie MacDonald was nearby and was able to help me move furniture and remove the carpet that was covering the tatami floor. (Tatami is a delicate kind of Japanese mat that is used on the floor) It was a big mess, and it turned into a bigger mess yesterday when the real estate agents and other workers began assessing the damage and determining the problem. I'm also really thankful for Mirial Gainer's help here, she took care of everything right away.
My bedroom has a skylight window and it seems that the ventilator fan just below it is the problem. There is air space behind the fan that had been accumulating water with all the typhoons we've had recently. So they'll have to fix that, and my floor as well.
This means that I'm not sleeping at my apartment for the next few days. I'll be house hopping it looks like (thank you to the MacDonald's and Mirial!).

I've read the last verses of Isaiah 40 over and over since Sunday...
"Do you not know? Have you not heard? The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired or weary, and his undersetanding no one can fathom. He gives strength to the weary and incresases the power of the weak. Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint." ~Isaiah 40:28-31~
