Washout

Despite the tropical storm still being far to the south, we've already had 3-4 inches of rain this morning and our basement is already flooded (but not as bad as it's been at times in the past). You can't fight mother nature, so we're just hoping it doesn't get a lot worse. At least Mädchen doesn't seem the least bit bothered about having to stay inside all day (she must have gotten that from her couch potato Daddy).

UPDATE:
Now the roof is leaking in our family room. And Gretchen confirmed the sump pump that's supposed to keep water from running under our back door into our basement isn't working (that would be the sump pump we had replaced within the past year). Supposedly this will end in the next few hours, but in the meantime, UGH.
