Well… almost a month later now and today we have the contractor coming to check on the house before they start their work… to got a feel for where they are going to start and when they will be starting…

The inspection for the damages has come out to about 6000$ worth of repairs…meaning that all of the downstairs flooring needs to be replaced, and a few walls need to be torn out and replaced also… It makes us realize to what point we have too much stuff… We have to get most of the stuff out from downstairs so that  they can work and we really don’t have room to put 3 rooms worth of furniture, books, toys and all of the other things….

At least the insurance will be paying for everything (minus our deductible) and I was able to choose the new flooring which will match our furniture better…
