about the weather, let me say that the sun is out today and it's (almost) 70F. Hurrah!
But boy, do we ever have water problems at church. Yesterday we had one drain cleaned out because we believed that it was backing up and causing part of the library flooding, and things were looking good. Today when I arrived at church, water was spewing out of the toilets, yes backing up into the bathrooms in the undercroft. Apparently the water table is really high (should we be surprised?) and forcing water back into the church. Ready Rooter was there when I came home, but I don't know what the final verdict on a solution is.
Moral of this story: don't build on a wetland. Wish they'd known that in 1888.

Sounds like a real mess in church. It looks like this week should be better, though. My biggest complaint is that if we dont get some extended sunshine soon, all of my annuals will rot. Last year, we had the worst drought in, what, 50 years? So everything dried up. And now, we might as well build an ark!
My son's pre-school is in the basement of an Episcopal Church and we constantly have these issues. They didn't build on wetland though- not sure what the problem is.
