Hi everyone. I'm sorry I've been busy today so didn't have a chance to check Fb.. So here I go.
Went bed 3:30am and heard fire alarm off 5:30, took my kitty cat and evacuated. Watching fire for 2.5hrs then walked to the chick fil-a with pjs on... By That time, my unit wasn't on fire (only right side of roof yet) so I thought I can get in once fire is gone. After my friend got me sweatpants and socks, warmed enough myself, walked to my apt building again. My unit top roof collapsed, my neighbor units collapsed also. Been watching firefighters fighting fire for few more hrs. Then 2 firefighters went into my unit with me, we threw stuff as much as we can, as quickly as we can. it wasn't enough time cuz the other side of building was collapsing so we had to get out. Thankfully, firefighter got my important documents. And yes most of our cloths were thrown outside so we got them all.
This was happening today. And I learned lesson.
1. Get renters insurance. I moved Dfw after graduating AA training and it's been almost 3yrs. I had had not any accidents so I thought I could save $18.00 a month for not paying rental insurance, so I canceled last month. Big mistake!
I was busy today for doing nothing. I, just couldn't do anything.i was lost. I just didn't know what to do now. I couldn't answer all my friends calling, I only spoke very few ppl.
I noticed y'all trying to helping me out by sending uniform, cloths, shoes, money.. I really appreciate it. I usually am shy to get someone's big favors.. But honestly, I am so frustrated right now. When I moved here in Dfw, y'all know how much first paycheck from new job. Me and my husband used to sleep on the floor, finally got a futon from target, my back super hurts, used air mattress, flat, buy another one, flat, floor again. I remember when we finally got the bed. Then we were able to buy more stuff for last couple yrs and finally, I got everything I need in my unit. Table, bed frame, computer, drawer etc... When I looked at inside of my apt unit today, it's all gone. I have to start again. This doesn't make me unhappy but It is frustrating. I am still shy but yes I'd love to get some help...
What I need is stuff for kitchen, furniture.. And money will help me tons as well since I have to buy everything. Most helpful thing is your comments, msgs. Y'all just out there for me, that makes me very warmed and loved.
Sorry i think I talked to much, but I just had a shower and finally keep calm, relax in my friends guest room myself. My body starts hurting tho.. Legs are sore, back hurts, have a headache.
My apt transfer me another unit in the same apt complex but it hasn't been cleaned. Don't know when is my move-in dates but right now, I do not have anything with me.
Thank you so much everyone. Can't explain how much I appreciate you all prays.

Ps. This happening give me lots of lessons. I am very independent person but today I got helps from red cross, my coworkers, I felt I'm not alone. And from that, friends Help which is big or little doesn't mean nothing. Any hands reach out to me, makes me feel enough that I'm not alone. When I opened amenity from Red Cross, there were a shampoo, comb, towel, socks that I can get it from hotels, or everywhere that offer me for free. I didnt think this will help someone one day. It hits my mind. So this time I'd love to get some of your help and one day I'll pay forward it to people who need help.
