2. LOVELY evening we are having.
Edited on Thu Aug-23-07 07:16 PM by greatauntoftriplets
Lights, etc., went out at work. We got the lights back pretty quickly, but the network, email, internet, etc. stayed down longer. Driving home from Skokie to Forest Park, I mostly outran the storm, but the skies opened four blocks from home and I could barely see.

To recover, I am having a strong adult beverage.

Sorry about your siding.

Edit: spelling.

3. So, ask me about my sump pumps...
Working great all night.

Now ask me about my basement...
Water leaking in through the foundation, on a 15 year old house.

Killing me.
