It rained a lot here last night. So much of the city and burbs are currently flooded, including the soccer fields near my work. My office building had a roof leak last night so the east wing of the building is flooded. My co-worker's basement flooded last night, so she's home trying to pump water out before tonight's rainfall.
And I realized that I have stuff stored in my basement. All my China, which could easily be washed and probably wouldn't sustain much damage from water. All my Christmas stuff, which would probably need to be tossed. Which is really too bad cause I just bought a new stocking and tree skirt last year which I love and would hate to get rid of. But worse, and I mean MUCH worse, is all my books. I mean ALL my books are down there.
Granted, I did keep my signed copy of Beloved upstairs, so that would be safe. But there must be a couple hundred books down there. And if they got wet, they would be ruined.
I called my landlord and left her a message asking if there was any flooding. Keep your fingers crossed that we were spared.
Ugh...my books. :(
**This just in - NO FLOODING!! The books are safe!!**
