From Simple:
Today, after having one of the best days, I was made aware of some awful news.
Our apartment building went up in flames. I honestly don't know much about what happens next. Unfortunately we didn't prioritize renters insurance--I mean who would? Christmas, bills, our dog, health insurance...it just wasn't something we had anticipated needing right now. So as for all of our belongings, I'm hoping the building is stable enough to let them inside to try and salvage some things.
I am so fortunate to know that Deryck and Mika are safe! I know what we lost are material things, although the reality of those "things" have yet to fully sink in.
Update from Simple: The amount of support that each and every one of you guys have shown us has been unbelievable and overwhelming! I cannot even begin to gather the words to say thank you.
Some of you guys I've known for barely more than a week--10 minutes even and the willingness to step up and help has been tremendous.
Thank you from everything in me, this certainly has felt less and less devastating with each day that goes by. Maybe rebuilding won't be as challenging after all, with so much thanks to you guys.
