Snow storms
This is the day I called my insurance company to see if I should get flood insurance. I was advised not to. https://youtu.be/q_3_5txljZc -
How high is the water mama?
It's a song by Johnny Cash. My son and I were walking around taking pictures, playing that song. I might have a strange sense of humor. https://youtu.be/EDN2K1aFY3g -

Attempting to get home
My area was the last area to get to our homes. It was a pool of water. Our houses sat in water for a month. We watched as others were cleaning their homes while we couldn't even see ours. https://youtu.be/5T3CnwAsIb4 -

Second evacuation
This is what I call the real evacuation. We were evacuated once before, but I didn't pack much nor did I move much. The second time around I moved and packed as much as I could. It felt more real. Good thing I did, because it was the real deal. The last time I saw my house before the flood. -
First Time In House
After several attempts to get to my home, I finally see it and get inside. https://youtu.be/VrqWOlm5S3I -
Kitchen sink
Everything was covered in so much mud, except for this teacup. It was eerily quiet in there. And horribly smelly. -
First Day of Demo
The living room windows. -
Garbage pile
My house is on the front boulevard. They would come every so often and scoop it up and cart it away. In this picture they are taking my microwave. -
City Map
This map shows that there was 10.5 feet of water on the street. That means there was 7 feet of water on my main floor. -
Front of house
New windows that had to be special ordered. -
New Sink
My father bought me the counter top and I bought the sink. Extra deep for the big pots!
