To do today

SapphyrEyes

Cut DS hair (because it really is long)

Pack up more stuff to take to storage because I can't get at all the soaked carpet unless I do

Wet vac the carpet and figure out how to prevent mold from growing underneath and I believe the carpet is glued to the cement so I can pull it up and put anything down underneath... (Suggestions for the top of the carpet, anyone?)

Give DS a bath

Clean off counter since they are looking full of crud and I may have space on the one shelf if things get cleaned up here

Make dessert for dinner I'm going to tonight at 6ish

Think this is doable... Going to storage will probably be 4 trips at least an hour long with the drive and getting in/out of the unit  (which I sincerely hope hasn't been affected by yesterdays storms)

 Oh and apparently we got something close to 2-4.5 inches of rain in the entire metro/surrounding area yesterday which was the total we get in a month.

Sorry about the mess! 

For the carpet, I actually have sprayed the area with watered down vinegar (I think a 5:1 ratio water to vinegar maybe?) and then sprinkled baking soda (with lavendar EO) over top.  Let sit for a while and then vacuum up.

I was having stink/mold issues because my cats kept knocking over my drinking water in the same spot EVERY night...it took me a while to figure out that just blotting the area wasn't enough.  So I had to put the water out of reach, but this helped get rid of the mold smell!

I'll give that a try.  I wanted Lavendar and Clove EO's so now I have a good reason to go get them.  Plus, I need more vinegar anyway so I'll add the health food store and grocery store to my list.
