Guest BengalLady Posted January 22, 2005 Report Share Posted January 22, 2005 I am sorry to hear that Rick. I understand why you would hate winter at this point. I am waiting on a new roof to be put in and it is not any time soon due to the weather. I hold my breathe everytime we get a heavy snow that it won't give out and cave in.

Or live with it for 5 months out of the year, as us Northeasterners do. Snow is the true antichrist. And the basement mess, yeah, I know what you mean. Especially in the spring thaw, my basement becomes a lake. Excited about snow, yeah, excited in a not so good way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BengalBeotch Posted January 22, 2005 Report Share Posted January 22, 2005 I like warm weather, sand and beaches too... I wouldn't want to live in Michigan or Wisconsin... I don't like snow THAT much but since it's a rarity around here...I think it's cool when we get a boat load of it....Spring will roll around and I'll be tired of it....(just in time) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I still want to live in sunny FL and enjoy sand,sun water,boating. I have my boat and only get out limited times do to either the river rising from crap up east,rain here. At least down there I can enjoy my second passion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[right][post="37818"][/post][/right][/quote] The one you just had built? That's horrible man. I remember when I was younger (like 11 years old) and we moved into our brand new house, the basement was constantly flooding, my dad ended up adding a second sump pump and my parents haven't had any problems since.

Guest steggyD Posted January 22, 2005 Report Share Posted January 22, 2005 The problem I have is my basement is old, and the concrete does not slope in one direction anymore. So the low spots collect water and the sump pump only gets the water when there is enough water to push it that way. I guess my solution is to re-concrete the basement. No money or time for that right now, so on with the flooding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest steggyD Posted January 22, 2005 Report Share Posted January 22, 2005 Well, there are maybe 3 main spots of collection of water, so it would take two more sump pumps to make it worth while. It's not exactly a small house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[right][post="37889"]<{POST_SNAPBACK}>[/post][/right][/quote] i have the exact same problem... its like the carpet only gets wet, except a couple of key spots... but when you clean it, smoke a cigerette and are proud of your hard work... then you walk on it, and get huge footprints again... it only took about 5 minutes, and it was like it was never done... i gave up, and only did it a couple of times a day, until it stopped... that was an abnormal snow we all had though...

Guest steggyD Posted January 22, 2005 Report Share Posted January 22, 2005 Upstate New York here, the snow is very light, a fine powdery snow. I had to shovel the parking space for my wife to pull in, and it was the best shoveling snow ever. That makes it just a tad better, but I still hate the stuff, especially since it probably won't stop for another 8 hours or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest BengalBacker Posted January 25, 2005 Report Share Posted January 25, 2005 Thankfully I have no idea what either of you are talking about. The Informer? "A Jiggy Boom-Boom Down"? Being old and out of touch sometimes has its perks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
