Thank you. The generosity is almost discomforting in some ways too. I am usually the one volunteering, helping out...being a bleeding heart.I don't know how to say "thank you" as it turns out. I was given a box of thank you cards, envelopes, and stamps and it is a little paralyzing to write the thank you cards. Its like I'm affraid to give away that I'm so vulnerable and grateful. Writing this out here though gives me a new resolve to sit down and finish the cards I have written so far. I have a whole new appreciation for my immediate next door neighbors. They have so little and have given so much of their time, love, tried to give us their belongings.
I met with the structure adjuster yesterday at the house and he is being incredibly fair/generous with the repair write up. I think the house will probably be better than new when its done. The contents don't matter too much..but I really wish I could use my big bathtub! lol, it made being pregnant a lot easier. I also found a pressed glass depression era lamp in my house yesterday..it needs to have new wiring etc but its base and shade were in one piece which was just amazing to me. It's so weird to see what the fire destroyed and what the fire destroyed. I'm excited to meet one of the major contractors this afternoon to possibly sign a contract and get this show on the road.
The generosity is mind boggling to me too. And es...similar to a robbery victim I would imagine.
