A MONTH LATER THE CARPET STILL SMELLS and WE'RE STILL CAMPING OUT IN THE LIVING ROOM and GOING THROUGH OUR CLOSETS

It's true.  New padding has been laid, the carpet has been reattached to the tack strip, but we still think it smells.  We're going to get one more carpet cleaning.

In the mean time, slowly, very slowly, we are rewashing all our clothes.  The fans that dried the carpet spread a lot of dust. 

We went through our closets, trying everything on, and decided to donate a huge box of clothes in good condition to our local hospital.  We found out that many of the people who go there HAVE NO CLOTHING TO GO HOME IN!  Some of them are homeless.  Some had their clothes cut off of them in an emergency situation and just don't have any family or friends near enough to bring them clothes.

And we are not going to ask for a tax deduction either.
