Rain, Rain Go Away…

I tried calling Ryan after I got off work to see what his plans were…no answer, which means he was at the house. So I drove down to see what was going on…when I arrived he hadn’t been home and was still in his work gear. I could tell that he was just a little irritated to say the least. I asked him,” Why are you so happy?”…he never answered, but gave me “the look” and walked back into the house. I followed him and soon enough knew why he was so happy…

We had water and LOTS of it EVERYWHERE! It didn’t just rain today, it poured...several times in fact! I felt like at any point the house was just going to start floating away like Noah’s Ark. Okay, it wasn’t that bad, but I had flip- flops on that have about an half inch sole and just standing there my feet were in water. We both got to work because we knew the water couldn’t just stay on the floor and it was going to be dark sooner than we wanted it to be. He had the vacuum and I had the broom. A few hours and several vacuum canister dumps later we had as much water off of the sub floor as we possibly could, for now anyway.

Before I arrived Ryan had went upstairs and covered the gables the best he could with heavy duty plastic. Of course I had to put my two cents in and mention that maybe the plastic should have been done yesterday like I had said :) …nonetheless, I sure hope it helps tonight!
