We have got a lot of rain this year too. And I also agree that when I was a kid I can remember getting a snow like this one around Christmas every year.
The sun is out now, temp is around 40 F. It's all melting.
But while I was outside taking some pictures to send to my sister in Alabama, I noticed I have a piece of aluminum trim blown loose. Its up high (two story house), so I got to borrow an extension ladder and fix it tomorrow.
I just hope another storm dont blow up by then.

Aug 23? Maybe it will be on Aug 31 (my BD).
If so feel free to name the baby after me.. "DaOld Man" might be a strange name if it's a girl though  :laugh2:
Congrats though, I know you are looking forward to the new baby in the house. My son got married last Oct, so it probably wont be too long until Im a grand dad myself.

It's 50 degrees and sunny here in CT, but it's also windy as all hell.  As expected, the flooding in my basement has gotten worse.  I've had to take ANYTHING of value and put it at least half a foot off of the floor surface to ensure no water wicks up into them.  My cabinet build is probably going to be on a permanent hold until ALL of the water recedes out of the concrete and drains someplace.  Where?  I have no idea since all the typical drainage areas in my neighborhood are under a few feet of water.  The worst part is that there is nothing I can do about the flooding.  It's water that is wicking up from underneath the concrete slab and then collecting on top of it which is my basement floor.  The only thing I can think of is to jackhammer up my entire concrete slab, remove the stone, put in a vapor barrier, put stone on top of that, put a ton of drainage pipes on top of that, then put a new concrete slab in.  I figure that would cost nearly $40,000 to do and I just can't afford it.

It just figures that after buying my house we get record rainfall here.  In the past four weeks, we've had nearly a foot of rainfall.  My house is basically ruined and there's nothing I can do about it because the insurance companies don't do ---steaming pile of meadow muffin--- about water problems.  I almost want to burn this place down to get them to pay for it.   :angry:
