Another Day Away From The Keyboard

December 3rd, 2006 | by christine |

Or more accurately, away from this blog.

The basement flooded Friday night, and I still have cleanup work to do.

I am pretty bummed about it … the flooding caused some boxes to fall, and as a result, we’ve lost a lot of books and papers. We had some nice older magazines get soaked through … very disappointing.

So … it’s back downstairs for another day in the damp. Sweet.

When I get back to the computer I’ll be working on the Shiawassee County Forum, which I had planned to launch by tomorrow.

    Bummer. Sorry about that.

    Oh, and one other thing…

    U! C! L! A! my new favorite team!

    Fingers crossed. I want a rematch!

    That’s covered by homeowners insurance right? Also, a friend of mine in Holland had her basement flood and she called the city and they came and moved all her stuff and scrubbed the entire basement. Apparently it’s a health code issue, the city is responsible if you get sick from sewer back up, so they have a crew that handles it.

    Just a thought.

    Hi Jerome, thanks for the info. I don’t know if it’s covered but I’m going to call today & check on it. -cb

    Same thing here in GR- my dad’s basement flooded and the city took care of it, but they caused the problem in the first place. Something about them hooking up something wrong, I don’t remember. But check into it, you never know.

    Boo Gators. But I hope they beat OSU.

    The Rose Bowl will be fun- two teams with something to prove.
