So that was my home for 29 hours. Pumping out my basement with an improvised sump pump. Which consisted of 18 feet of 2 inch diameter hose, duct tape, zip ties, and a kayak bilge pump. The first wave was 3 hours of constant pumping to remove 5 inches of water. Followed by round of 2 minutes rest, 2 minutes of pumping for another 6 hours. The night was fun too. Sleep 30 minutes, pump 20, fetch more wood, stoke the fire sleep 30 and repeat.
If there is a santa claus and if I have been good then I wish with all of my heart for a back up generator and a chainsaw.
