Salvage

Steven left for League City today. He went over to the house to survey the damage. The food in the kitchen has begun to rot, and so its swarming with flies. All three bedrooms are pretty much unsalvagable. My computer, however, including my PC, monitor, printer/scanner and program CDs are all completely alright!! Apparently our trusty computer wardrobe (thank you, Walmart!) kept out the rain and heat enough to keep it all safe. Who'd o' thunk that plywood-and-glue piece of junk could have withstood so well? Also, our teeter-totter and all the stuff in the shed (including Stevie's bike) are perfectly in tact and usable, so that's also good news.

Steven said it looked spooky and horrible, but somewhat fascinating too. He's going to buy a pushbroom tomorrow to help sort through the debris. I personally wouldn't think twice about bulldozing the place and everything in it. Its all tainted now. I'd rather try to forget the things we had rather than try and put back together the broken, ruined pieces. It would just be too hard.
