So as some of you have realized I haven't been on much lately...I have good reasons I promise...but todays events top everything else.
My house caught on fire....
Yeah, I know...
My family is all okay, dog and cats made it out...but my hamster Poppy didn't make it. It started in what we call the 'gamesroom' and luckily my Dad was a hero and contained it to only that room. Mine and my sisters rooms are very close to that so it could have been even more of a disaster.
The entire room is destroyed meaning my laptop, iPod and camera (along with countless other valuables to my family...eg our grad dresses and wedding dress) are all ruined. We have insurance of course so everything will be replaced and taken care of...
but of course that means I am currently living in a hotel with my family. We're all sharing a laptop (the one that is crap and lived downstairs, away from the fire) and I have my iPhone but my internet access is very limited.
My family was VERY lucky today. It was a monday (my dad's day off), my entire family was home, we caught it early, the sun was shining, everyone made it out of the house (Poppy, the hamster, excluded...may she rest in peace)...It happened around 7am and I was rudely awoken by screams of 'shit there's a fire'...not the best way to start a monday, hm?
There's no structural damage to the house but the fire left a destroyed room and a very smoke damaged house. I'll be living in a hotel for the next week or two and might take even longer to come back depending on when my laptop replacement is bought.
Wish us luck!
Lots of love, Feather
