Chit Chattin away!

We need some rainy days -- we're 6" below normal, 16" behind last year. Neighbor ended up having to get a new well drilled.

It's been raining for the past couple of days here in Vermont and it's cold, dark and dreary outside making it all quite depressing. I suppose on the positive some of the sad looking yellow leaves are turning bright orange and red so that's sorta nice. But it's still depressing since it then just makes it more painful knowing that summer is over. Waa waa waa.

Yay, made it to Terrific Tuesday! Enjoying the paperwork shuffle (yeah, right), waiting for things to get done on the lake camp we're looking to buy. Hopefully the flood insurance stuff will get set up today. The place is 40 years old, high enough that it wasn't harmed even in Spring 2011 when there was a big flooding problem on the lake, but we're on a flood plain, so supposed to get insurance.

Flood insurance is a ripoff
When I flooded in 2006 FEMA was in the next day handing out money to all my neighbors for clean up and repair. I didn't qualify because I had flood insurance. I had to wait a week for an adjuster from Florida. Another 2 weeks for a partial check and 6 more weeks for final payment that covered about a third of clean up and repairs. The neighbors got more than enough to cover everything. Tax dollars at work

I hear you. What bites is the area had bad flooding in 1993 then 2011, but this place wasn't touched, just enough of a rise and built up on piers. Unfortunately, too much of a hassle to fight over it now, we want to get the closing done. I might investigate next year, see if there's a process to show it is not needed based on height above the base flood level.

(I'm not even sure if the current owner pulled flood insurance, but I'm a by-the-book person and the commitment letter does have the clause about needing to get it if required based on location. I didn't want to play dumb, possibly have closing get messed up. We'll only pull the bare minimum to satisfy the bookkeepers -- it's a seasonal home, no valuables going to be in it, and low actual likelihood of flooding.)

Morning peeps!

Jazz, Belgian cocoa !!

 

[beebopnjazz]

It's yummy isn't it?

Cafe Mocha is steeping now....Lox won it in a Halo contest. We're hoping it's as good.

 

[Paislia]

I love real cafe mocha, but so far haven't found a vape of it I like.
Hope that one is good for you guys!

Hmmm, someone else wants pluid - what's a CC house blend?? Is it coffee or tobacco?? (maybe I should just leave that thread alone for a few days and give someone else a chance lol)

 

[beebopnjazz]

My order of pluid came in from vapow Maybe I should do the swap - heard lots of good things about Gandalf. Lox cut the pluid in his ce5 in half and it's still outstanding.
I read that notifications went out in the middle of the night from the 310 site......and of course it sold out right away......doesn't seem right to send those notices during the night.....

 

[Paislia]

yeah you should probably do it - I have heard of house blend, but I wasn't chasing it by any means. And yeah, missed the vapow sale again so I'm down to about 30mls . . . . . I was just thinking of doing it to help somebody try it

 

[Paislia]

wait, 310 has it too?? Didn't know that . . . . or are you talking about gandalf . . . .

 

[beebopnjazz]

Pluid both 310 and vapow carry it.

Maybe I will do that swap
