Diary of a Flood Survivor Part 14

Diary of a Flood Survivor Part 14
The final piece to the kitchen was installed over the past weekend.
My new wine rack was the latest member of our kitchen family and while it looks very lonely at the moment, it won’t be long before it is full.
I had had a wine rack in the old kitchen and wasn’t too fussed about having another one, as I was planning something for downstairs.
It was the electrician who suggested it would be the perfect addition to hide all the wires needed to provide power to all the switches.
Who am I to argue with someone who dryly told me he had gotten his qualifications from a couple of Youtube videos and an episode of The Block?
And so the wine rack was cleverly designed by a young cabinet maker starting up his own business and whose family had lived next door until recently.
I feel like it was a win-win situation all round. I get somewhere to put my wine bottles, while hiding my electrical cords and helping a young builder with his business. And just quietly, he did a great job.
He has also built our new vanity, ready to be installed once the builder puts the walls and floors in our bathroom area.
Meanwhile, we have had a more recent flood scare with yet another low pressure system forming off the Queensland coast.
I had warned friends on Facebook that if they see a crazy woman on the news, trying to part the waters like Moses, that would be me.
Desperate times call for desperate measures.
My prayers must have worked, as at the time of writing the rain has eased, but it is still a nervous wait for Lismore and the Wilson River with a major flood warning in circulation.
Just another event to help us build character.
Little steps.
