Argh! I hate this rain!!! I think we caused it because we washed both cars and had irrigation installed in our yard, the grass we planted 2 weeks ago is totally drowning!! I had to wade out in a mid-chin deep lake to get my car to the road and then load up the kids to take my son to school and it was not fun to take the baby out in this weather!!
WILL IT EVER STOP?????

It messed up my commute home pretty bad, I woke up this morning to no power and our dinghy SUNK!

right now....MAKES ME WANT TO CHOKE THE LIVING SH!T OUT OF MY DH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: How has this Non-Stop Rain affected you?

I don't know if it's the water that's in here is actually the ocean, but it smells like it!! DH and my FIL have just continously been vacuuming everything up with the wet vac and everytime they finish, more comes in - my inlaws said I can sleep in their house (upstairs) but I don't want to. I have to get to sleep soon though because I have to be at work at 7:30!

Re: How has this Non-Stop Rain affected you?

we have about 5 inches of rain in our basement, we have been pumping since 5:30 and it hasnt gone down AT ALL!!!! its even gone up a little i think. my aunt who lives next door has a foot of water in her basement, she is waiting for the guy to come pump it out now.

Re: How has this Non-Stop Rain affected you?

Thankfully it hasn't since we are not in the island but I'm so done with it.
I only went out once this week.

Re: How has this Non-Stop Rain affected you?

Well I was soaked up to my shins on Wednesday because I park my car at Shea and catch the train there for work every morning - and it doesnt have a sufficient drainage system! My back was wet, my butt, my underwear, my pants were so wet I was weighed down all day and freezing!

For those of you who have flooded basements - I hope nothing was ruined in the process

Re: How has this Non-Stop Rain affected you?

I was moody, am sick, exhausted from my commute (I am so alert when I drive in the rain it was rediculous - watching the car behind me, in front of me beside me) I think my brakes have gone bad, it took 40 minutes for me to get from the Loop Parkway to my apartment in Long Beach , I drove down three streets that flooded and had to turn around.

But I woke up and it is not raining

Re: How has this Non-Stop Rain affected you?

to all that have floods. I'm lucky we dont have one here. However my dog has taken up peeing and cr@ping in the house b/c he doesn't like the rain

good thing I love him

Re: How has this Non-Stop Rain affected you?

I couldn't get to my music studio to teach today because it's flooded! I feel bad for anyone getting married at Flowerfield today because my studio is behind there, and there was no way to get in the front entrance!

Re: How has this Non-Stop Rain affected you?

like mrswask, i too am dealing with a very soggy apt in Long Beach.. its not as bad as some of the others but it is an annoyance... i have fans, a dehumidifier, towels and the heat on..
