It didn't flood in from the back where it flooded in 2009, and it isn't a ton of water at all, but it seems to have come down the foundation wall at the front of our house. I could absolutely cry. I swear, I can't handle one more thing. And I mean that.

@gidgetgh, my heart and prayers are with you! I understand just how you are feeling.
I'm not in your area at all but I know what it feels like to get scared when it rains harder than the ground can soak it in. Rain can be a blessing and a curse at the same time.

It sounds like it's seepage. I hope it isn't too bad.

@Bri369 - the water restoration company we have used before came and just left. He can't find the source of the water, but said it doesn't look like the foundation. And while he doesn't think it's a plumbing issue (too coincidental that it didn't happen till last nights rain) he had me call the plumber to check the drain pipe and they're on their way. If that yields nothing, he told me to call a foundation company for them to check.
there is moisture reading in one of the baseboards in the dining room also, though the baseboard feels dry to the touch.

@gidgetgh I'm glad you have someone coming out to check what it is. That was fast!
Keep us updated @gidgetgh

We are under water too. We have trash cans catching water in several different places at my employer's place and some of the electric is back out.
I drove a half hour to my doctor's appointment at 7am this morning in torrential downpours and the morning rush hour only to be told my doctor "decided not to come in." Three weeks of prep and a year wait to be covered by insurance that I now pay double for all wasted plus I lost money out of my paycheck for the trip.
If you want to take my hand and jump with me, I am beyond done too.
I think I have finally gotten to the age or point where people get that selfish and just go, do, and be all for themselves.
I just keep finding more and more that you can do almost everything right in this world and it gets you absolutely nowhere. I am so tired of showing up in all aspects and no one else can be bothered. It's exhausting.
