SO I AM SITTING AT MY DESK WRITING THIS I AM SOOOOO TIRED AND NOW IM GOING TO KEEP A JOURNAL AS TO HOW I WILL REBUILD OUR LIFE. YOU SEE WE LOST OUR 14 ROOM VICTORIAN HOME .              MY DAUGHTER CHARLOTTE WAS SICK ONE NIGHT AND HAD WET THE BED SO @ 1 AM CHARLOTTE AND I ARE IN THE BATHROOM FIGHTING SHE WANTS TO GET IN THE TUB I WANT TO JUST CLEAN HER UP AND GO BACK TO BED I HAD WORKED THE OVERNIGHT AND SPENT THE DAY PAINTING THE HOUSE SO I WAS DROP DEAD TIRED! I hear this noise its breaking glass i run into the living room the house is on fire ,omg i have 13 kids sleeping in the house how do i get all of them out the fire is over my head by now charlotte is naked molly ricky  sadie are all asleep on the other side  fire how do i get them all i run through the fire i get molly molly runs back into her room and closes her door now i have ricky , charlotte and sadie running for the back stairs to get the kids from the 3rd floor kids are all screaming up the stairs molly and i are getting the dog ferret and cats the turtle tank 100 gALLONS SMASHES at my feet. molly and i run for the back door ,by  this point charlotte sadie patrick jodie paul 1 amanda ricky have jumped the flames and are heading down the stairs molly and i have the great dane and cats and head out the door  molly is screaming because im closing the doors and we get the kids out i go back to the first floor to get our tenant's out another 4 kids and the dad they wont wake up what do i do i look for something to break out the window the door opens everyone out the house is on fire . OK 4 more kids out i have to go in again i  need the phone diabetic kit and the car keys .kids get in the car all kids and the dog loaded  into the car off the street was all i could think to do . i couldn't let the kids see the house burning down as we drive up the driveway the windows are blowing out i tell the kids to cover their eyes. i took the kids to a friends house and ordered them to stay inside and i went back to watch my dreams go up in flames.    after 2 hours the red cross show-es up they wanted my id i couldn't beleave it my house is a3 alarm fire and thay want my licence..  i couldn't believe it !!!!  the red cross gave us a hotel for 2 nights and tells us we will be on our own but hear is a pre pay master card with 75.00 a person on it .i was in shock . i don't mean to sound ungrateful but my child is naked  i need to buy head to toe clothing for all of us as well as a place to live.we had not Even 1 penny to our name.  the house was put out or so we thought the next day the insurance guy finds the house caught on fire again ,i was fired from my job when my boss found out the house caught fire a second time infect my tenant was also let go from the same company .so hear we are stuck at a hotel not knowing if we have a place to rest living off the goodness of the church .... crazy isn't it
