YAY . . . it's a done, did, deal!!! The masonry man called this morning, came and took out the four basement windows and blocked them up. We
SHOULD have no more water in the basement from the torrential downpours of rain we have been experiencing the last two years.
Plus, it will give me more room around the perimeter walls for storage shelves, without the worry of leaking from the windows.
It's much darker in the basement now . . . duh, we took out four windows!!
LOL It's also cooler too
, so maybe it will help with the AC and heating bills.
OK - I just now had a lightbulb moment . . . wondered why I have a headache today - I don't get headaches very often. It's from the cement smell coming up through the vents!! Thankfully, I keep the bedroom vent closed - so hopefully, I won't smell it in there. You know us Sjoggies and our smell sensitivities.
Hopefully, the cement will dry quickly - anybody have an idea how long (days) it takes?

P.S. The man was
SUPPOSE to give us a call two days
BEFORE he came . . .
NOT two hours before he shows up!!!
I'm just lucky that I was home for him to come so we could get this done
TODAY.
I sure hurried around this morning doing some cleaning . . . I have family coming for a visit Monday so I've been working on things, so it wasn't too bad. I hate those
YIKES phone calls that someone is coming and you frantically pick up, stash and hide things!
Of course, none of us do that kind of thing . . . .
