Reply #64: Was rained in until today. [View All]

It rained six straight days - and I'm allergic to mold. I was miserable. Today's the first day I have taken a deep breath in days.

I still have the dehumidifier going in the basement, though, because the ground looks like a mud wrestling arena. The dogs were so happy just go out running on the back deck (it's elevated as my house is built on a hill - the first floor in the front is the second floor in the back. We have three stories). We put them out there to do business when it's too muddy - and then just scoop up or pour water on the, uh, mess. They've been cooped up in the basement for six days (it's a full sized, finished, heated basement/rupus room - no worries - they just like to go outside and smell and bark and all that dog stuff).

It's been pretty miserable in Knoxville, TN. I'd rather have snow. It hasn't done more than dusted snow here since the Blizzard of 1993.
