    Sorry to hear about the damages due to the heavy rain. I’m hoping that you are assessing what can be done outside the house – to prevent or lessen the chances of flooding should heavy rain occur again. Do you have downspouts/gutters that carry the water away from the home? Is some landscaping needed that sends the water away from the home? Climate change is occurring and where I live is now having high water levels and flooding more frequently. Your remodel plans sound great, I just don’t want you have to go through flooding again.

      It seems this was caused by a lot of landscaping problems and gutter issues. We’re replacing and fixing the gutters and resloping the ground to run water away from the house. It’s crazy how small things can add up and cause huge issues. The chickens digging holes in the yard and against the house didn’t help! Who would have thought such a small thing could have such big effects!

    Oh, Leah I so feel your pain considering the flood as we went through the same a few years ago. It’s heartbreaking but fixable just expensive & a real pain. So glad you are slowly recovering. I just wanted to give you a shout out to say I am so sorry you and your family had to go through that. I have been a faithful fan for a very long time, not really a person who leaves comments but wanted to let you know I have learned so much from you over the years & do appreciate you sharing your knowledge.
    Sincerely,
    dee
