How to get flood insurance
It made me
breathe easier 
"Embarassingly easy"
How I did it: 
I called my car insurance provider and said I needed a new home insurance policy and while they were at it could I get flood insurance, too, and they said, "okay," and, "address?" and "how do you want to pay? online?" and I said, "credit card, right away," because it was much less expensive than I'd expected when doing preliminary research, in the neighborhood of $300, and I didn't want to forget or lose a paper bill.
So then they said, "your provider is ABC and your policy number is 123 and it will take effect on August 14th."
I felt dizzy afterward, it was that quick and easy.
Lessons & tips: If your home is by a blubbering brook, a clamoring creek, a simpering swamp, a well-intentioned wetland, an outdated storm drain system or even a newly installed parking lot... well, then there's no excuse - get it before you regret it.

how high the creek got the other day…lapping against the foundation! Big logs coming downstream like battering rams, aimed right at the place.
Why have I not taken out flood insurance yet? Like many things on this list, writing it down sort of feels like I’ve done something. But actually doing it would feel different….
