Clean carpets

The carpet cleaners came today.  Two very nice guys who cleaned the guest room and the living room - the two rooms impacted by the flood.  The also did the steps and the entry rug for such a nominal amount that I couldn't pass up having them do it while they were here.

All in all I am quite happy - for carpet that is 7 years old downstairs and 15 years old upstairs it cleaned up pretty well.  8 critters can do lots of untoward things to carpet.  In our someday house they will have their own space with no access to carpet of any kind.

All critters had to be in lockdown today - the door had to stay open for the tubes from the carpet cleaning van.  Madison made her jail break by crawling under the door to the craft room - she was the center of attention for a moment before she got put in the bonus room where she was unable to escape.  Luckily it didn't take them long so confinement was short and sweet.

As for flood repair progress - we are done with the exception of the shower walls.  It will be so nice to have this whole process over with!
