sabau jek lah

for non malay readers (do i have any??)... the title means "give me patience"... or something like that : )... coz i sure need it...

our basement is flooded once again. i went down around 7 am after hearing suspicious noises. chot was already down there, trying to prevent water from spilling into the dry part of le basement. he was half way getting ready for work, in his undershirt and underwear... but wrapped his towel around his waist just so not to offend neighbors.

and i started shovelling water out using the snow shovel (kindda works well) while chot went to the home improvement store(s) to get a pump for is shop vac. unfortunately, he came home empty handed... all stores are all out of the pump. which makes me feel a bit better knowing we are not the only one facing this watery mess... but it still sucks BIG time.

can i sue someone for this mess??... : (

nura is still sick... n i'm sick with all the cranky-ness and this house sooooo pushing my buttons. we were planning to re-do the bathroom but now we have to think of the basement. chot has started to call contractors... we need a sump pump installed...

I HATE THIS HOUSE... the end.

apex... still in survival mode : )

emmy... chot knows what to do. we need to rip the downstairs bathroom n pecahkan lantai to install the sump pump. chot's co-worker offer to help put it in but he needs to do his basement first.
