a river runs through it

And by "it" I mean my basement.

Wow. That's a lot of water.

I may have once in my life been foolish enough to say I wanted to spend more time with nature, but that didn't mean by inviting it into my house.

You too? Our basement flooded last night and again this morning. We filled our 14 gallon shopvac 5-6 times between yesterday and today. Any damage?

Only behind the walls where we can't get at it. :-p

We have a drain by the washing machine so the water is leaving - I just have to ford a river to get to the bathroom. And it's coming out from underneath the bedroom so I'll need a dehumidifier in there for a couple of days before I can even think about sleeping there again.

Heh. Us too. We're going to call the insurance company tomorrow to see if they cover the cost of repairs.
