The cabinets are salvageable, but I had to get them away from the walls, and the only way to do it was to destroy the countertop, and the backsplash was fricked in the process as well:

Are you being compensated enough from FEMA/Insurance?

The TV and monitors look so much smaller in that picture than it does sitting in front of it

That is a pretty sweet setup. I do miss my larger desk at home but this one will do in the apartment for now.

Nice monitors

What are you playing BTW? Overwatch?

I don't have flood insurance (live in Zone X), and the FEMA grant money is basically meant for emergency basics to make the house livable. However, FEMA did give us $14K based on the damage, and it's going to be enough to get the house back in order if spent wisely. We are doing everything ourselves, because the contractor labor would consume every bit of it instantly. But materials are actually cheap if you DIY. A few hundred for drywall and insulation, a couple grand on wood laminate flooring, thousand bucks worth of paint and supplies, a few hundred on interior doors, and some other big expenses like a fridge, oven, and countertop, plus a cheap living room set to get by for a while. AC is fine, as are washer, dryer, and dishwasher, and being able to keep the cabinets is a pretty significant savings. My parents and coworkers have pretty well covered all of the toys and books my kids lost.

There might be a little leftover to get a desk like the one in Blue's pic. My shitty walmart desk fell apart.
