    Yeah she is having a hard time with losing everything, she grabbed an old diaper bag on way out that had some baby photos. Kids are 9 and 5.

    Sorry that this happened. Any idea just how it started?

    I've heard that about the difference between men/women..........when leaving a house during a fire, a guy grabs guns, a woman grabs pictures!
    (of course, that is if everyone is safe first)

    Wild horse had me up 1/2 the night. First the dog woke us at 1:30 (sleeping in the living room), she kept hitting the trap door which makes a bump sound while back and forth looking through different windows. 3:30 I went to the bedroom and kept hearing bumps and clunks on kids adjoining wall, figured a potty break. Nope, heard more later, got up and checked on her, sound asleep and quiet. Just before 5 rooster crowed and startled it and woke those two up.

    Why didn't you just tell those wild horses that it was pasture bed time and to be quiet?

    I suppose maybe you didn't want to stirrup any trouble?

    Lucky you didn't yell at them. You could have ended up with a sore throat and been a little hoarse today.

    I know, this attempt at humor is oat-standing and haylarious.

    Caffeine! Hoping to do some firewood cutting, splitting, and stacking today. The weather looks like it should be great with the temperature at 32 right now and a high of 68 expected this afternoon. Hope you all have a good day today.
