Dec. 27th, 2008 08:40 amWe actually had thunder and lightning last night. One flash was so bright that I thought a transformer had blown. But, no kaboom, and my power stayed on, so I assume it was lightning.
It was -5F/-20C on Christmas morning. Two days later, and it's 50F/10C. It's been raining since last night. Basement-wise, water's leaked in through a couple of window wells, and the sump pump--my brand-new this past Spring I wuv you sump pump mwah--has been kicking on and on and on. I dream of foreign sales, the proceeds of which would be handed over to a drain tile guy and a basement sealer guy to render my basement desert-dry. I still doubt I would ever have it converted to living space, but it would be done and I could hand over warranties to whoever buys this place a few years from now, and that's a good thing. A selling point. Joys of home ownership #3957.
Rain expected off and on through the day. Then temps drop again. King is currently curled up here in the living room, snoring softly. Gabamatrix, otoh, is outside in search of who knows what--I called her inside for a minute, and she sat in the dining room and stared at me like What? So, I let her back out, where she now lurks. Patrols. Whatever.
Grocery shopping today. Haircut.
