He just didn't want to go through the insurance. Hmmm. And suddenly, a new family moved into the empty house today. They are noisy. I already miss the quiet of having a nice flood.<BR/><BR/>Rachel:<BR/>One of my many failings is I am intimidated by folks with money, probably because I know how much NOT having money holds people back, so we didn't fight, but we did get what we needed. I guess that's the bottom line, right?<BR/><BR/>Kate:<BR/>Indeed it sucks, thanks. You know, I'm shocked so many people read this post to the end. It was so bloody long! So, thanks for that too!<BR/><BR/>Librarian Nervosa:<BR/>Just keep sending me the Tazzie email jokes that I have no idea what they mean, but enjoy them none the less. :) Seriously. Do we really speak the same language?<BR/><BR/>Shy:<BR/>Yeah, our ins wanted to run with it, after we handed over our deductible (which I didn't have since I just paid $500 to the vet on Sunday). We had no money and no advocates, but somehow we made it work.

Get someone into your house ASAP to clean your ducts! That mold, once it starts, is invidious. Keep the receipts and submit them to the next-door owner, and <I>go to the police and fire stations</I> for copies of the incident reports. Document everything. You won't get it all repaid, but at least you're prepared. <BR/><BR/>Are any other neighbors connected to the same building? They should check their ducks...ducts...hee.<BR/><BR/>If you need a mom-sitter or dog-walker, I can do that. I can do hugs, too.
