We had a house fire last night. Kids and dogs are OK, which is all that matters, but at least a couple of rooms are totalled and all are very wet and dirty. I will be offline for the weekend, I’d guess. I am posting this from Doug’s office 30 miles away. What a blessing to have everyone out safe and sound.
More soon.

OMG Joanna (hugs)
So glad to hear everyone is OK
good lord – glad you and yours are okay. How scary!
Holy cow! Glad everyone is ok. Please let us know if there is anyway we can help.
Glad to hear everyone is OK–how scary!
That is a terrible loss — so glad kids and critters are alright. Good thoughts!
OMG! So glad you’re ok! Good thoughts to all of you.
Oh how terrible!! I’m glad to hear that the dogs and the family are all safe. Sending good thoughts your way.
Oh my goodness! My thoughts to you, and your family! I’m so sorry! What a scary experience, and horrible time of year for this to happen 😦
Is there anything we (online friends) can do to help?
Thinking of you and your family. I hope everyone is holding up ok and people (and pets) aren’t too traumatized. Are the kittehs ok?
Wow. I’m so sorry to hear this. I’ll be thinking about you and hoping your cleanup is as easy as possible.
Oh no. I am so glad you are all OK and hope that you are able to get through this OK. I will be thinking positive thoughts for you all and hope the cleanup and repairs will go smoothly.
Oh Joanna, I’m so sorry! I’m relieved that you are all ok, including the critters. But ugh! *hugs*
Joanna~
I’m so sorry. I’m glad that you are all ok.
Thank G-d you are all safe.
OMW I am so glad you are all ok. If there is anything you need please feel free to ask. After all you have done for me I will do anything I can to help you out. Do you or the kids need clothes or anything like that?
Oh no! Glad you are okay, if smelly. 🙂
OMG. I’m glad to hear everyone’s ok, but sooo sorry you and your family have this ordeal to manage. Hugs!
