What Keeps me from Crafting? part 2

We've moved!  And I'm sorta mostly unpacked.  Feels great.  Then we get a text from our tenants in Idaho.  Our basement is flooding.  We're not talking moist carpet, we're talking flash flooding.  10 inches of water in one night.

I've been on the phone all day.  We don't have flood insurance.  Why would we?  We're nowhere near a river or lake. 
 The farmer that was flood irrigating says his insurance won't cover it.  My tenants gave us an 8-day notice that they
 will NOT be returning to the home.  I'm hopeful that it will all work out, but I'm terrified of the road I will have to take
 to get there.  

I must say, I have done some great projects since moving in.  I even took some pictures.  Unfortunately, because
of the events of the day, I haven't uploaded them to my computer.  But I do want you to know that I want to find joy
 and being creative brings joy so despite my life's stresses, when I do finally get off the phone, I will upload those pictures and show you what a couple bucks can get you.

In the meantime--anybody looking for an inexpensive home for rent in Rexburg, ID?  The upstairs is in great shape!
