Remember how I said that workmen came by a couple of days ago to start removing our roof? Guess what’s happening now? Massive thunderstorms. With hail!
Water has made its way around the roof tarps to drip through the ceiling fan in the living room. The basement has rivulets of water running across the floor and under the door to the laundry room. The laundry room drain…well, it’s not draining. It’s just full all the way and sitting there. Sigh.
The worst part about this story is that it’s happened to me before. When I was a teenager, my parents decided to have a new roof put on my childhood home. As soon as the old roof was removed, we had an unexpected storm. Whose bedroom ceiling flooded and fell in? That’s right, it was mine.
It’s after 11 p.m. and we’re less than halfway through the storm. Ooh, the weather lady says that the tornado warning has been cancelled. Bonus!
I’m going to bed.
