Well, Trish, my house is one of these that leaks so bad all you have to do is stand by the outside cellar wall and unzip your pants and it's full. LOLOL
that is why I have a sump pump. Didn't really take too long this morning to pump it all out. I stick the hose out the window, as we just put in a new septic last fall and I do NOT need to overload that puppy.
