Today is the one year anniversary of my family losing our home in the Sayer fires. I went back in my blog to look at what I wrote about it. Funny. I didn't write anything. The only way of knowing what happened is by the wonderful comments my friends left for me. Wonderful People
I didn't really sleep last night, had odd dreams but now that I am awake and coherent I can't recall them. I'm going to Mrs_Mishas today to get an anniversary tattoo. My mom is coming along, she and Misha seem to have that artists bond going on.
A lot has happened in the last year since the fire. John and I stayed with my sister and brother in law for about one month until we could move into our house. My parents right now are STILL living with them, their new house should be rebuilt by the end of this year. I've painted and decorated and put myself into about 6 grand in debt but I now how a really real home, it's cozy and everything! A gorgeous couch, corner bench dining table, king size bed and beautiful amish crafted wooden drawers. It's like..... I got the house of my dreams but it took a devastating fire to make it happen. odd. One thing I AM thankful for is the fact that the fire burned up all the papers and documents I had been meaning to shred for years. So that was kinda cool, but not worth losing my family heirlooms over.
There are still times when I am just standing around minding my own business and something that I lost pops up in my head and I get really really depressed. GOD knows I saved a lot of things but there are still things that I couldn't get to in time and it breaks my heart. My QUIXE costume that I had made for Spooky House burned up, I couldn't think of anything but that this Halloween. I worked hard on that costume.
I need to start looking forward to the bigger and better things in life. Marriage, children (someday soon), family get togethers and hopefully a promotion at work. Life is a rollercoaster and I am having one hell of an E ticket ride!
