I hope tomorrow is better...

Bad repeated itself today.  It ranks very near to the top of that bad list. The best friend pointed that out. Just grateful it's a relatively short list.    ;)

[There does seem to be a lot of doom and gloom, I wonder if there really is an increase or if it's just the media being itself

well I'm not bothering to go in
only got a little sleep
decided to check on the basement last night around 11 and found a foot and a half of water with both pumps going full bore.
That much means the motor on the boiler is in the water.  [bang]
Killed power to that even though the motor obviously had already tripped and went out to see where the hell the third pump I have is.
It was out in the garage with its hose full of ice and stuck in a puddle of ice.
Got it free with my little heat gun.
Dragged it all into the basement and because of the ice in the hose all I could get out it was a trickle, but knew that means it would eventually be good.

put the hose out the bilko door and went to drain the 40 deg water out my boots.

checked on it a bit later and a nice flow coming from this pump and the water level was dropping very slowly.
checked again at 3am and the motor was now back out of the water
checked again a half hour ago and back down t just a wet floor
reset the motor, turned on the power, crossed my fingers and the boiler started up, smoky as hell but it went.  [thumbsup]
