Some people worry about fire prevention.
Me, I worry about water prevention.
The Ex and our daughter spent this afternoon working on a new sidewalk for the front entry. (The old one was torn up when we had our sewer outlet redone a few months ago.)
An hour ago, my daughter came rushing in telling me I had to come out and see what she and her father had accomplished. I went with her, expecting to be pulled around to the front yard to see the new walkway.
But no!
They had just built up an inch or so lip at at the top of my stairway, which should significantly decrease the amount of rain water that flows from the back patio down my stairway to the drain-with-no-outlet outside my front door.
Add this to the nifty little pump waiting in the laundry room to sit over the drain and pump out any overflow, and I may be about to experience my first non-flooding Wet Season in about four years.
You don't suppose that my being head over heels in love with a Water-aligned man has anything to do with this, do you? Or that I've been doing more with energy and intuitive work recently? Or that I took my daughter to Wild Waves (waves=water!) to play yesterday?

Nice water... nice H2O. . .
