The wind tunnel left yesterday after moisture levels fell to baseline "dry." What a freakin' load off not having that roar in the background, not to mention no longer needing to tiptoe my way cautiously around the house, avoiding snaked extension cords for the various water remediation devices (fans, dehumidifier, heater, &c.)

More importantly, despite yesterday's (and today's) driving rain, the emergency roof repair seems to be holding. At least there's nothing I can see leaking, and the wall's still open so it'd likely be more obvious than before.

Still need roofing estimates, and hopefully soon, roof repair (non-emergency). Then I'll schedule the rebuild to put back the wood & plaster &c. that got torn and ripped off to allow access to dampness in order to dry it all. One roofing guy should be here this afternoon, and another on Friday. May try to line up another company as well, just in case. For now though, the stress level has fallen a bit, which I appreciate.

Am glad I decided to stay close to home this past w'end. My mom and her hubby have got to spend an extra day (or so) in Healdsburg as 101's been closed in both directions due to flooding. Have another set of friends who've spent extra time in Mammoth b'c of blizzard conditions. Unfortunately, 395's closed (avalanche) from 13 miles North of Bishop to Bridgeport. Hopefully the Central Coast mudslides currently halving the available lanes up in SLO will be cleared up by Thursday, when I next travel Northward.
