Flood!

What can I say. The storm left us with 3+ inches of rain in less than a couple hours AND no power to run the sump-pump!

The water came up out of the sump-basket and soaked everything in the basement (and yes it’s a finished basement).

I took the day off yesterday in an effort to get things cleaned up. I figured that the sooner things could get cleaned and dried the better the chance of coming out of this without much damage.

Well I was able to get the stuff out from the basement and the water cleared from the crawl space, but then I just ran out of steam. The smell, then crawling on hands-and-knees, and the wet mess all took their toll. I had to quit and let my wonderful wife take over.

She worker her a$$ off with bleach and the carpet cleaner. Today she went over everything again.
This is a great opportunity to clear some of the crap out from the basement. A truck load of crap to the dump!

WORK:
It looks like my squeaking is getting some grease. Out HR rep got together the paperwork and I will be able to go to 32 hours some time in September. I was pretty stressed out about trying to work 40 hours a week and still be in the PsyD program.

I have no idea if I will get any access to P3 (for working add hours), but I am still squeaking.

I am going to leave for the day, but I have to wait until my blood sugar comes back up. It was 64 when I tested and I ate a rice crispy bar. Should be good to go in less than 20 minutes.

INSANITY LEVEL: GREEN
I am full of the realization that I have too much work on my plate and it CANNOT get done. There is a certain amount of peace in that framing.

STILL LOVE THE iPOD!
