Durn it. With all the rain in Northern Virginia last night, my basement got some flooding. Carpet in my prison cell/office is more or less 50% wet/50% dry. I'll probably cut it out, as my office is filled will electronic equipment and in the winter its a regular static factory. Wife's office/guest room had a bit of damage, and our family room/TV room had a bit near the back sliding glass door, and all by the front near the windows. The back, it came in near the glass door as the seal wasn't great. The front is about 12-18 inches "buried" so I'm afraid there's a crack somewhere in my foundation.

Insurance says anytime water enters the house, it's flooding. And since I don't have flood insurance, it's gonna be my dime to get the carpet repaired. There's goes my tax return...
