bailing---ahh, please forgive me if I leave once and a while, the wet-dry vacuums need to be emptied about every 6-7 minutes. It is not a hard job just never ending. Have to fight off depression, that is our worst enemy! Pat spent a few hours last night helping her girl friend bail. The friend is much worse off, lots more water. Pat came home about 2 am and found our basement leaking also, DAMN!!!!, so I have been bailing ever since 5 when she woke me up. She will go to Mass this AM and pray for us and so many others having flooding throughout the state and country. Rain, rain go away, California needs you.☺ Our farmers are unable to get their crops in because the fields are so wet and some flooded. It is so easy to be overwhelmed by our own tribulations and forget that others are much worse off. Please say a prayer for them and if you would mention us.
Our hopes for sale of our home a pretty much in shambles right now. We are saddened by what this has done to us. Darn! see how self pity can creep in! THINK POSITIVE!
If someone came along and made us a decent "as is" offer we are almost all packed and ready to leave. It would take very little to say good-by to this.
The rain has stopped!!!! The water is coming in faster now. Emptying vacuums every 5-6 minutes now but should let up in another 6 hours or so barring more precipitation. I just checked the radar on the 'net. The worst of the rain is ended for the foreseeable future. Now we can recover.
