Last week we had our **HOPEFULLY** last snow storm of the season… The kids went out and made this snowman with Zach & his girl Rachel…
This was Friday…
By Monday the temps had risen, the snow was melting & we had a thunderstorm, complete with lightening & tornado touchdowns… oh, & power outages with flooding…
My basement when I woke up on Monday morning… yes, it was this messy… yes I was already in the process of cleaning out the storage room… which in the big picture was a plus because there were a lot more things that would have been on the ground if I had not done that…
From the other end…
The boy’s bedroom is down there…
And their bathroom… (towels piled up by Zach so he could stand & get ready that morning)
All these clothes were clean & “fell” out of their closet… and soaked up the flood water…
And this was the laundry pile…
The basement kitchen…
Right now every area with carpet is empty & every thing is piled on the vinyl flooring… I donated 3 bags of stuff… free-cycled & sold a few things I was not going to put back into storage… The carpeting is dry & scheduled to be re-laid this morning… then it will need cleaned & we can move back in.
$500 deductible on my flood insurance… my brother-in-law is installing a new sump pump, plus a battery powered back up… that’s going to be costly…
I get my first tax refund since my divorce… I get to spend it on a sump-pump… joy of joys!!
