Do you have a dehumidifier? With all the machinery & fabrics & probably books, you need to get the humidity level down pretty quick.
Yes, I have it going full blast, fans and doors open so lots of air is moving around. The new sump pump is installed and running nicely. I have the fabric that got wet washed and dried and the bolts that got dampened are drying on a table in the garage. I had just bought a case of 12 rolls of paper towel that I hadn't gotten put on the shelf. It must weigh at least 20 pounds. The trash man is going to have lots of fun next week. Now I am going to go soak in the tub for a while. And as I look at the clock I see that it is "wine o'clock" somewhere. I have grandkids coming for a sleepover tonight. My neighbor said he was told we had 6 inches of rain in the night. I believe it.
