Just wanted to say that today is the anniversary of the fire in my house. It has been a really bad day for me.

Wow it doesn't seem like a year to me, but I am thinking it seems a lot longer to you. I hope the prospect of getting into your new home with new things will overshadow the bad feeling. The Brand New Day by LesA47 At dawn, through my opened window, I gazed upon a breathless, And heart-stopping sight. On the horizon in front of me, Appeared an aurora of mystical lights, Reflecting deep into the cavities and, Ridges of the surrounding mountains. Before me shown the early light, Penetrating the morning mist, As it caused perpetual golden rays To illuminate through the highest Mountain peaks, Awakening the earth below. As I peered closely, Brilliant colors of light Stretched upward, Like fingers on a hand Into the yet, dawning sky. Oh, as I gazed at this precious sight, Time itself seemed to be waiting, And wanting to grasp hold of The first beams, that would burst forth From the East and to witness, The suns smile beckoning "The Brand New Day. "

(((Ginger))). If it makes you feel any better, I have known the anguish of losing all my posessions to a house fire. I will never forget that day, but I promise you, it does get easier. Here's hoping that one day in years to come, it will become a distant memory and a good story, as mine has. (((Hugs)))

((Ginger)) My mil lost her house in a fire last Jan 12th. She moved in her new home in the fall, but I must say it was the longest year til everything was settled. My heart goes out to you.

Big Hugs for Ginger.....that means that last year I was in New York City seeing "The Producers" with Nathan Lane and Matthew Broderick, and watching the news of the fire that morning, thinking...."Hey, that looks like where Ginger lives." May you be moved into your beautifully rehabbed apartment soon. What a year you have been through!

You are all so wonderful. I wanted to actually hide in my room all day, but I had to go to a funeral, which did not improve the shape I was in. But the funeral was for the mother of a friend and neighbor who also lost everything in the fire, so I am guessing for her it was even worse. I know this will pass and things will be brighter. And I also know that there are people who have many worse problems. But thank you anyway, I always know when I need comfort, that I can come here to my friends. I truly do love you all {{{{{TVCH}}}}}}

Well, I thought yesterday was bad, but today brought very depressing news. The building will not be finished and the Building Department is not inspecting it until May 15th. Which means that I will not be moving in before end May or June at the best. I cannot begin to explain how upset I am. I am sitting in work and crying right now. I don't think I can take about 2 or 3 months where I am. A year and a half to be out of my home - it is friggin insane. I think that I want to retreat into my bed and just cry and cry.
