Hi, I am on a friend's computer for a moment. My apartment building burned down yesterday. I am now without an apartment. Thank God my sister and brother in law and our cats are okay. It has been a disaster. We are in a hotel put up by the Red Cross for a few days. I am pretty devastated. I just wanted to let you all know that I am okay and will contact when I can. 2 of my neighbors died, and I am just devastated. I have nothing.

Send me an email and I will get stuff to you. Maristvch@aol.com. also anything else you might need send me an email, I am sure I can give you stuff.

Oh Ginger!

Thank you so much for taking the time to check in. And thank God you are okay. I will say prayers for your neighbors. How horrible.

God bless you my cyber-kid! If there's anything I can offer you, please let me know. I don't have much of a wardrobe (I'm a jeans/t-shirt kinda gal), but even some of that is too small for me now (if you need anything in the full-figured range). E-mail in my profile too.

Oh GingerPooh! I'm so sorry sweetie! I know you've got a lot going on right now and when you get settled and feeling better, please let me know if there's anything I can do for you. Thank God you and your family and your cats got out. I am so sorry that you lost everything, but please be strong and keep in mind that you are able to start again. I will hold all of you in my thoughts and prayers.

Ginger! I can't begin to tell you how sad I am to learn your news. We had NY1 on earlier and mom saw that news story but I didn't. I'm glad to learn that you and your sister are safe. I will never forget the hospitality you showed me and Marm last month. Please let me know if there is anything you need.

Oh man, I just read the Daily News article. (Thanks for the link YIC.)

When will people freakin' learn to be more careful with cigarettes? UGH! This is all so senseless and incredibly sad.
