Sunday.





From here it doesn't look to bad. From here you cannot smell the stench of mold and mud. From here you are not there. The doors and windows will remain open not just to air out the house but because they won't close. Warped beyond the frames. The entire main floor was covered in 3ft of water and now completely empty. So strange to be in the home without all the items I've always known to be in their proper places. Inside is the FEMA inspector going over losses and damages, the house chilled from the dampness, we moved Aunt Lori outside into the sun to answer questions when needed. You try to remember everything that was in the house, and even with photographs, I'm sure we missed a few items... but with the extensive damage to the foundation I'm sure she will get what she needs to repair, rehab and move on.
