Kaili I will keep your grandma in my thoughts and prayers tonight. Thank goodness she is safe and with your dad. I can't even imagine how hard this has to be for her.

Can you contact your professor by email and let him know what's up? Most students I know have a way to email their professors when necessary.

Thanks for all the kind words. I love having a community like this I can reach out to. :)

Kali, My prayers are with you and your family. I hope the firefighters were able to contain the flames before they reached your grandma's home. Fire is the worst because it's so darned destructive and wildfires are truly scary.

Hope your professor is understanding. Keep us updated when you find out more information.

Thanks for all your thoughts- I talked to my dad this morning. They drove into town to see if they could get to the house and they still aren't allowed in, but they sound a lot more positive today. The news websites are still saying 7 houses burned but that number hasn't increased since I last checked. I'm feeling pretty sure that everything will be alright- just smokey and smelly. All they know is that they should probably be able to get in by about 3 this afternoon and that they didn't see a lot of flames- looks more like a lot of smoke. There are about 500 firefighters there working on it. It burned about 800 acres. I feel a lot better now. I never really thought about how horrible fires like this can be until this happened. As I was laying in bed last night I was thinking about what could be lost, how she could be homeless and have lost everything overnight. It's not so much all the material things, but the memories, photos, etc that could be lost. I was thinking about mt grampa's favorite chair, their wedding pictures, etc. So sad- I feel so bad for the people who did lose their homes, and the pets that they may not have been able to get out. Poor little animals! I still don't know about her house for sure, but I'm pretty sure that everything will be okay.

Kaili, still keeping my fingers very tightly crossed for you and your Grandma!!

Please keep us informed, ok?
I saw a little blurb about this on the news this morning and thought of you.

I don't even want to think about the pets!

{{{{Max}}}}} I am so sorry for the loss of your precious kitty. Remember Squeak knew how much you loved her.

{{{{Kaili}}}} I hope all is well with your Gramma's home. I can only imagine what a horrible night you and your family must have had.

My thoughts and prayers are with you both.

Hi Kaili!
How is everthing with your Grandma? Did she get to go back to her house? Are the fires under control yet?
Don't mean to be nosey, just still thinking of you!

Hi Webkitty- not nosy at all...I appreciate it. I talked to her the other day- she still wasn't allowed in yet baecause the fire wasn't completely out, but her house is fine. They were worried the smoldering fire could start up again. She seemed to be a lot happier- talking about how she had grabbed 3 pairs of underwear because your mom always tells you to not go out without having clean underwear and how she wished her deck burned because she has to replace it anyway, etc. She was happy and goofy, but everything is good.

Thanks for all your thoughts! Off to graduation I go!

Kali, my computer was down (and back in the shop) since Thursday, and one of the things I kept thinking about was your grandmother. Every time I heard about the fire in AZ, I was so frustrated cause I couldn't get on-line to find out! I'm so glad to hear her house is ok.
