Last night was interesting. There was heavy rain with thunder and lightning for much of the night. The weather radio was going off all night - thunderstorm and flooding warnings. The septic alarm went off about 3 AM. All I could do was turn it off.
When we got up in the morning everything was very wet - standing water all over. There was a new gully running down the driveway. It's amazing how much rock the water moved.
Ellen called the septic people. They said they'd come out, but we never saw them. The alarm started making a funny noise about 9. Then it quit and the light went out. I'm not sure if there is a problem or not.
The storm had plugged the driveway drain and the one in the front of the house. I cleaned them off. I also checked the gutters - they were clean.
Then I went out and finished the garage cabinet. They included two bags of parts, so I put two locks on it just for grins. After I finished it I loaded it up with stuff we brought down. Then I trimmed back the trellis plant and cut up a tree that had fallen in the back yard. I just threw all of the debris over the fence. Finally I started to make the closet shelf for the trailer. The saw fucked up and I'll have to buy another piece of shelving. That disgusted me, so I cut off the screws under the bed.
Cigna is planning on charging us $22K next year. I hate that socialist, Muslim, son of a bitch. So Ellen spent the day looking for another vendor. It's still going to cost us a lot more than last year for less coverage.
I finished up the day putting away some more stuff we brought down. We only have three more boxes and the photos to go.
