The dumpster arrived this afternoon. Soon we'll have the blowing trash contained, and we can say goodbye to thousands of ruined books, cassettes, cds, and every manner of record.

TL found a few pieces of my lace and our two silver baby spoons today. The level of the debris is now lower than the previous head-high; we can see across the ruin to the top of the lilac garden.

Sleep is always elusive. Goodnight.
