Monday morning and the water finally subside to a more tolerable level. First thing first, hubby went outside to buy some food. After an hour or two, he went back with a sumptuous meal, RICE and hot soup. Finally! We acted as if we hadn't eaten for years. And the worst part is about to begin. The cleaning. The mess that Ondoy left was unbelievable. It appears to me that everything is a trash. There was nothing left downstairs.
Aside from the physical mess, we also had to deal with the trauma and the emotional scar it left us. It was unexpected. Something unexpected and unbelievable happened to us and it would take some time to forget. The kids were also traumatized. The fact that they were not a about to eat for days was enough. Now, a slight rain can make them snap and ask if it there is flood again. It was really hard dealing with it. I can see fear in their eyes...

grabe pala nangyari sa bahay at mga gamit niyo mare. di bale madali lang naman mabawi ang mga yan pero ang trauma niyo especially ng mga bata dapat ma-address niyo 'yan.
Aw.. shet. ako rin. kahit di pa kame nabaha.. ay nabaha pala kame ung dumaan si pepeng. pano barado ung drainage. ayun. hakot ng tubig. alam mo, panic na ko nun. alam ko ung feeling.
lalu na pag makarinig ka pa ng kulog. kase alam mong malakas ang ulan. kaya jumpy rin ako nung after ng lindol nung 1991. nyay. tagal na no. pero kasama ko pa din un takot gang ngayon.
naku, super mommy Peh, di ko alam sasabihin ko. pero kaya natin to. basta pakita lang natin sa mga anak natin na kahit anong bagyo pa yan, kayang kaya natin. go go go!
haaaay... napraning ako at na-trauma for a waist-deep flood dito sa min pero kahit pano napaghandaan dito sa Manila dahil tumaas lang about few inches than the usual. Pero sa nakita ko lawak ng nasalanta ni ONdoy, ramdam ko ang trauma dahil di ni-expect ninuman ang nangyari. Sigh. Siguro you need to focus muna sa mga bata para mawala sa isip nila ang nagyari.
scary naman yan..nanonood kami ng tv nung panahon na yan at nakakaawa talaga ang mga nabahaan... hahay... kami dito walang baha pero landslide meron...
this is scary. we need to be caution always.
