Facebook Update #7

We have tried for 2 days to salvage some things from the basement. We end up being very unproductive and just stand and stare. I swear the weight of it all is heavier and heavier every time we go over. Emotionally, physically and mentally we just can't bring ourselves to do it. So, tomorrow we have a crew from Servpro coming to help us figure out what to do. They will decide what can be salvaged and we can decide what we want them to take and clean/dry out for us. It won't be much, but we need the help and met with a wonderful person today who was very helpful. I cleaned out my car today and they will come to pick it up tomorrow. We filled out paperwork for the rental and for the insurance company to take care of the rental. The problem is that everything is a chore. They sent us the files via email....well we don't have a printer or computer - we ended up going in to school to take care of it. Everything is a process - we needed to fax forms later to the insurance company and had to go to Staples to do it. Then they tried to take our deposit and our debit card was declined because we have a limit on it and didn't even think of that. Of course it was after hours and we can't call the bank until the morning. Nothing is easy. The boys had a really good day and a good night and went to bed relatively easily. At least that went our way today. It was nice to stop into work and get some nice hugs from so many who care about us. We really do work with an absolutely amazing group of people.
