@hoodog nice of you to ask! I'm in a new place and putting things back together. Got a bed and a chair and a table which I certainly took having for granted lol.

Everyone who helped me made a huge difference. I have clothes for most any situation. The down coat from @happyriverz has been a life safer during the past few snowy weeks. The coats @gdl203 and @conceptual 4est sent me get compliments all the time and were a huge mood lifter. The beautiful Lamy 2000 @dieworkwear sent is inked and being used every day. @ICDK and @Timbaland rebooted my geller collection with some beautiful pieces. Even Robert Geller himself was kind enough to send me a strap Bomber, jeans, and a dress shirt. I wear @zissou Leder knit most every snowly day, the thing is a monster chunky wool armor. The geller hightops @msg sent look dope and knowing common projects should last a very long time. I think I've thanked everyone directly, sorry if I forgot to mention you above.

I still have dreams every couple days about going back to the apartment and finding I was able to save stuff, it's a heartbreaking. However I think this experience has made me feel less materialistic, I don't value my self worth based on what I own anymore. I had a somewhat gross obsession with everything I owned being one of a kind.

Thank you all for caring so much. I really never expected the response I got. Love you all ❤

This is unfortunate news, and I immediately remember how our house caught fire because of bad wiring. The electricity shorted out, and the house began to catch fire little by little. My family quickly ran out of the house. Even though we had a fire extinguisher, I still decided to be safe and called the fire department. I know they study a lot for this job and take various tests that I learned about at https://firerecruitmentaustralia.com.au/pearson-vue-practice-test-firefighter/. So I was confident that I could be rescued by people who knew what they were doing. After they arrived, they checked all the places well so the fire wouldn't happen again.
