Well, here we sit home in the rain and it hasn't stopped (short breaks) for two days. It is predicted to rain until about Tuesday and that does not make me happy since I already have about 1/2 inch of water in my downstairs room. It seems to 'seep' in at the bottom of baseboards even though when I had the room renovated we coated everything with stuff to prevent this kind of thing. I will be using a wet vac to get it up but it is frustrating to see it now (do not have the vac yet). I do not have anything down there that can get 'hurt' by a little water on the floor but it is not nice anyway.
I am not letting Petey on the deck since most of it is wet and when the wind blows from the east, I get 'mist' in my bedroom if the sliding door is open.
How I managed to get to the theater last night (my usher thing) without 'drowning' is a mystery. I took my shoes and socks in a bag and walked (wearing a longish raincoat with umbrella even in the wind) from vehicle to building barefoot! Bottom of pants did dry (about an hour for that) but mostly, it was OK. I am glad I live only 'around the corner' from the theater so I didn't have to be driving in the 'driving wind and rain' much and I even managed to get back into my driveway safely.
We are still in better shape than many who have much flooding going on in different parts of this city and others in Florida.
Next note, I hope, when the sun is shining again!
