Update June 5, 2013

Things continue to progress.  The inside of my house is clean and I am shopping for carpet to put down.  Margaret and Jack are also shopping for carpet.  Jack continues to work on his garage and putting together benches for the garage.

The good news for me is that I got out my air compressor and blew out the back of my big screen TV.  I turned on the power and the power light came on for a few seconds and then went off.  I waited a few minutes and tried it again.  The power light came on again and stayed on a little longer before going off.  I tried it again and this time the power light stayed on but no sound or picture.  I hooked up a DVD player to the TV and played the DVD but no sound or picture.  After about 10 minutes I started hearing sound coming from the TV but still no picture.  After a few more minutes I started seeing a blurry picture and then it got clearer and finally after a few hours of the TV being on, the picture was back to normal.  This was some really good news since I can certainly use the money for a new TV on other things right now.

Since I had good luck with my TV, I went down to Margaret and Jack’s and tried the process on their TV but I didn’t have any luck.

The dehumidifiers continue to suck water from the houses.  Margaret and Jack have  three of them going at their house and I still have the one going here.

Things are starting to get back to normal.
