This week Martin and Trish stayed at our place for a few days on their way to Idaho. It was great to see them! I saw all of my family this summer, so I was really glad we got to see some of Jirik's family as well. We loved sharing some good times on the Wii, watching movies, and just talking. They were also a huge help in getting some of the bigger items that I need for my classroom. Without a car it's hard to transport big, bulky, or heavy things. I was able to get wire storage cages from Target that I'm going to use as bookcases, tons of notebooks and some other school supplies from Target, animal print pillows from Costco along with hanging folders and labels, and other misc. items. It was such a load off my back (actually quite literally). They left Friday morning to go to their new apartment and we are way excited for them!!
Updates on the flood situation: - ~ carpet is dry
- ~ still no padding
- ~ Living room is put back together, but will need to be removed again when the padding is installed
- ~ sprinkler head and pipe replaced, resulting in hole in the wall because the last sprinkler went through the 2x4
- ~ water valve turned back on, and no more waterfall
- ~ Next steps: (1) wait another day or two to ensure problem is fixed, (2) Maintenance people need to replace drywall and paint, (3) empty living room, (4) carpet padding replaced, (5) reassemble living room, (6) Get back to normal life
