The flood waters have receeded

So my landlord came over yesterday to see if he could figure out what the problem with the flood is. Apparently, the pumping system blew a fuse and the alarm that is supposed to sound when the pumping system is no longer working also blew a fuse. The townhouse directly behind our experienced flooding as well. So he brings over these shop towels (heavy-duty blue paper towels) and proceeds to soak up the water for 45 minutes. The carpet is still a little wet, but it's not a lake like it was earlier. I have my fan on it 24/7 hoping to dry it up so we can move on. Some days, I wonder if it's even worth the drama and stress!
