House fire and damage











Well yesterday was an eventful day. We had a storm come threw and knocked down half of a 80 year old tree it fell on the power line pulled it threw the roof and caused a power serge threw the house causing a small fire. I am so glad that I was home and heard the pop I ran in the kitchen I got the fire out but we had some damage. The surge protector was on fire and everything plugged into it is gone. We have damage to... Dishwasher, TV, sat box, microwave, oven, central heat and air, roof, eve of house, and kitchen floor and mini blinds. I know in all it could have been worse.

I had Paige and Morgan ( girl next door) and both were so scared. Last night Paige heard the tree pop and got so scared she came running in the living room crying and asking to go for a ride. She was so scared that it took her a while to get to sleep last night. I know it really scared her and I feel so bad that she was here I know she is OK and things could have been so much worse but I am so sorry that my sweet baby had to go threw this and is now in fear of anything that Pops.

The insurance adjuster will be out Friday to look at the damage and I will not know anything till then. The tree is still across the back yard and it pops because it is only held up by the phone lines and the phone company is not coming out till today. I am not sure if they will move the tree or just the lines but it looks like we re going to have to do something with this huge tree our self. I have moped the kitchen with some strong pine cleaner to try to get some of the smoke smell out but my house smells so bad and is so hot.
