    The emergency crew had to remove all of the baseboards in my hall bathoom, some in my hall way and dining room area, and all kitchen baseboards. They also removed a few of my 2 year old kitchen floor tiles which I found out that they don't even make these any more. Luckily I have about a box and a half of the kitchen tiles and almost a box of the bathroom tiles. Some of my carpet padding was also removed.

    AquaTek is taking full responsiblity but they don't want to go through their insursance company. My parents have been trying to get estimates for the repairs and then we'll send this to AquaTek. So far I did have the carpet padding replaced, the carpet areas stretched and reseamed. All baseboards replaced and the kitchen tiles replaced. The kitchen tiles will need to be redone because the man used the wrong kind of glue.

    I had to paint the new hall way baseboards and touch up all other areas that were damaged. I also painted the second bedroom. I still have to paint both bedroom doors and eventually my own bedroom after I declutter it a bit more. The only good news out of all of this is that I'll be eventually getting new carpet throughout my condo which I've been wanting for years.

    Me and my cats had several days and nights of too much togetherness and I couldn't get much sleep because Sunny wouldn't let me. He's now on a different calming herbal pill and is doing much better. Starr was doing poorly before all of this but is doing much better now. I've started feeding all of my cats some raw chicken in the mornings by RadCat and they all seem to love it. Ziggy and Sunny still aren't too sure about it though.

    Storm started acting very aggressive again and he was going after poor Starr so he's now on the same calming herbal pill but he gets 1 pill in the morning and 2 pills at night. He was only getting 1 pill at night. He's now much calmer for the most part but can still be grumpy at times. Every one else is doing well.

    On a much sadder note, I've lost my roommate. She was with me for a little over 4 years. She's going through a mental breakdown due to financial problems and she's taken a leave of absence from her work. She has a home in Las Vegas and is now living there with her husband. She's become paranoid and needs medical help but she's shutting everyone out. Her brother and SIL will be coming all the way from New Mexico to move her things out of her room on Oct.17th.

    I've been talking to her co-worker and her daughter who lives across the street from her and this is how I learned about what's going on with her. I noticed that she was becoming very depressed but she wouldn't open up to me. I just hope that she'll be able to get the help that she needs. Please keep her in your thoughts and prayers.

    I guess that's all for now. I have a lot more work to do so I've got to go.

    Gosh. That is a lot of water damage! Please make sure that all the dampness is gone. We had lots of water damage in our schools due to bursting pipes and stuff, and when they didn't use the dehumidifiers and fans enough, they got lots of mold. You don't want to end up with that!

    So sorry to hear about your roommate. I hope that she will get help and get on the road to feeling better.

    Hope things will go smoothly for you and the kitties!!

    Aggravation like that, you don't need. Sure hope it all gets turned around for you soon.
    Blessings,

    Oh Tracey, I am so sorry that you had to deal with all this. What a mess. I can only imagine how frustrating this was for you. Prayers on the way that everything works out well very soon.

    I'm happy to hear that Sunny, Starr and Storm are doing better now and that everyone else is well also.

    Hang in there girl, it can only go uphill from here on in.
