Lots of people all around me got sewer back up, we stayed to make sure that would not happen, and protect our home and ponds. Were are exhausted, the stress of the flood, and the threat of sever backup and hiding in our home when we were supposed to be kicked out and evacuated was just not right. We should have the choice to stay and defend and protect our home from flood or looting without stressing out about the police kicking us out of our own home. Many people refused to leave, and hid out in their own home. Because we stayed, we are one of the few people who don't have sewer back up in this area.
The city will provide big garbage bins for those with flood damage. We have lots of junk that we are going thow out so it is good that these oversized garbage bins are coming and will be placed in front of our street. Some good will come out of all this, we will sort out the junk that has been cluddering the basement for 23 years.
Last night me and the hubby sat outside by the pond, in my bug free zone, and enjoyed a few drinks by the fire. We needed that, stress level is much much better, hubby and I are working together right now, cleaning the basement, and it feels good to work by his side....
The city sewers were overloaded due to the flooding, but today it was safe to remove the sewer plugs as the risk of sewer backup should be gone. We now can have running water and flush the toilet. We had an emergency portable potty set up in my outside in my greenhouse.
Got to get back to work... thanks to listening to my crazy flood drama....
