Tropical Storm Fay, Wednesday, Part Two

I really, really, really wish we had not cancelled our flood insurance. It was only like 165 a year. Of course, we have homeowner's insurance. But watching all this water fill up the yard and the pool and creep right up to our foundation, I really would appreciate the peace of mind that came with having both types of insurance. At the very least, I really would love some sandbags right about now. Thank God Dave had the foresight to go on Sunday to get a downspout and fix the front gutter off the porch. The wood post that supports the porch got eaten by termites and we had to replace it back in May. During the replacement of the post, we tore the roof of the porch apart. Dave and Terry from church fixed that up, but there was no downspout yet. If Dave had not done that, I think we would have water in the front room right now. There is easy access under the bay window because there is no foundation under it.
The kids and Dave are playing bored/board games. I think I should go join them.
