So...
Monday morning I woke up to a soggy carpet and wet furniture. I live in the basement bedroom with my sister, and apparently our drain pipe outside got clogged and flooded the window well next to my bed. At first we just tried to dry the carpet by moving all of the furniture out of the way and putting towels down and a fan on the area.
Then Dave (my brother) stepped in and reminded us of the padding underneath the carpet and it's mold potential. Immediately mom was sure she smelled mold, so up the carpet came. Dad rushed out in his sick state and bought new padding, moved all my furniture (bookcase, dresser, clutter of junk, bed, cabinet, etc.), ripped up the carpet, cut out the old padding, and dried off the cement in 2 days!
Tomorrow he'll place this new padding and replace the carpet before he Mom leave for Arizona for at least a month. Crazy!!
