Yesterday's trimmings.
Triangles.
strips.
Things went pretty well so far but I am worried. Even though I got much more done than anticipated it only showed me truly how much there is to do. I went home early to prepare diner for a few girlfriends and while I was busy doing just that Thomas discovered that our basement flooded from the heavy rains we had yesterday. Our carpet is soaked and two doors are damaged. most everything else is fine. Still, it's a huge worry and we have very little time to face it as we are going to France in two weeks to visit my parents... We have had three different floods in the basement this year and our patience has ran out. Thomas was lobbying for tiles when we can afford them and I have come to the conclusion that he is right. Even if they are cold to the feet.
Oh! and did I mention that my new Nikon P7000 broke (again) yesterday? When it rains it pours...

Ugh, flooding. We know that problem too well.
If it is coming in after rains then I would check your window wells, eavestroughs, and grading of the land near the house. These are the usual suspects. In our house it was all three, combined with the fact that our neighbourhood used to be a swamp!

Oh no! Sorry to hear about the flooding and about your camera breaking. I have a Nikon too and the people are really nice about customer service...I hope they are able to help you out.

Oh no! How terrible! Flooding is awful, especially when you are getting ready to leave town.
