Of course, I was upset. I will have to wash all my clothes, and
right now, there is nowhere to put them! I will probably have
to deal with mildew, which makes my asthma worse.

Hopefully it isn't too late, but what you should do is borrow or rent
a humidifier.

That would be a DE-humidifier

Sigh.

Last night, I went into my closet to get a clean outfit -- only to
find my clothes soaking wet! Apparently, with all the rains here
recently, a leak in the roof became quite active, and leaked into our
closet and the hall closet both.

Unfortunately, those closets are where I store my most precious things
-- photos, old newspapers, old greeting cards, our "wedding box",
things like that.

Fortunately, somehow, almost none of the important stuff was damaged.
The water either missed it completely (in the case of the photo
albums), or there was minimum damage to the less important things
(just a few newspapers of which I have several copies, and some old
posters advertising my services and plain poster board).

Of course, I was upset. I will have to wash all my clothes, and right
now, there is nowhere to put them! I will probably have to deal with
mildew, which makes my asthma worse. And we have one huge mess here
right now, having had to move all the boxes and albums out of the
closets. But at least the pipes didn't break, the ceiling didn't fall
in, and it wasn't a tsunami, where we lost everything. So I guess I
should count myself lucky.

Hopefully it isn't too late, but what you should do is borrow or rent
a humidifier. That will pull the water out quickly. Just keep the
drain basin emptied. Good luck. Yes, you and some others have had it
rough lately. Purrs.
