Happy Fucking New Year...

OK, I'd have to say it's kinda like trying to bail out the Titanic with a Dixie Cup! I guess I spoke too soon on the last blog entry when I said that we had the "day off" because there were too many workers here. Basically the rain started to really come down and all hell broke loose! I went to the local hardware store 3 times in less than 30 minutes for buckets and tarps, a whopping $300.00 dollars worth. Damn that shit adds up fast, oh yeah and doing great on the new years resolution to quick swearing! 8-) just kidding! Like that would work. The security guard at B&B Hardware wanted to know if I was trying to stop all the leaks in Los Angeles. I said no, just my one house! Here is a little snap shot of what we've been dealing with the last 24+ hours........ We've been having a very hard time today with this door. It has been leaking very bad to the point where we are worried about it being ruined! That's a very expensive door that took us an entire day to install. We think we have a handle on it, but we'll see in about a half hour when we go to check on it. I will have to say that considering how hard it has been raining today we have been fairing pretty good. We have to head upstairs about every hour or so to make sure there are no new leaks and empty the buckets from the spots that are. Our next problem is that we are running out of buckets! And anything that you can imagine that we could use to catch water, we have all the way down to the dogs bowls. You gotta do what you gotta do. There's more rain on the way and thundershowers tomorrow, Yipee.......Here's a look upstairs, this is our master bedroom. This is the media room, but most important below this room lies the room that we are currently living in. Needless to say it's one of the most closely watched areas. HD/S/L/WC: 135
