So far it seems to be and luckily, we didn't have too much stuff on the floor that wasn't furniture, so it's not like a bunch of stuff got ruined.
We got everything moved out of the immediate area and someone's coming to look at it this afternoon. Hopefully, the worst we'll have to do is pay a clean-up service to extract water from the carpet. (Much as I hate that carpet, replacing it is not high up on my wanna do list.)
Glad it's not too bad, Barb.
Entergy said the power should be on between 12-5pm today, smonster?
Supposedly!
My mom has been here since 9:30, cleaning and packing. The goat farm people (K & D) came and were total fucking rock stars, like I knew they would be. They packed half the damn cube, including all the furniture I'm taking and a ton of boxes, and did it well, in THREE HOURS. Man, do I ever owe them. And I think everything will fit (woot!).
My afternoon help can't come, unfortunately, but I need to do more sorting and packing anyway - down to stuff like toiletries and cleaning supplies. There will be maybe 20 more boxes to load, max.
I'm still a total stress-bunny, but oh my goodness. They did such a wonderful job.
Barb, I'm glad it's not going to be too terrible.
smonster, everything is going off great! You can totally do that.
The tomato sauce is made and the kitchen cleaned up with 5 minutes to spare.
All sympathies, MFN and family.
{{{{{Maria & family}}}}} I'm so sorry for your loss.
All my sympathies for your loss, Maria & family.

Oh, Maria, so many prayers and good thoughts and strength to you and your family.
