A Bit To Close

My friend Fran texted me today (the one in the black) so I called her, knowing that for once we both had a few minutes to spare! Unfortunately there was a fire, not even a half mile from her place, across from the townhouses I lived in When Little Miss was a baby, they are okay praise the Lord, but I reminded her that if she had to leave she could come here, thankfully they were quick in getting the fire under control! I have known Fran since she was four, so basically her entire life, and though we have periods where we hardly talk there are times we talk on a daily basis! I am relieved that her and the boys are okay, and that the fire wasn’t worse!

@Michellekidwell That is horrible and good thing she had a place to go to if needed. I am glad they are ok. Wow, that is a very very long time to be friends.

Thank God they were okay. A fire can be so scary and when it is your house burning ..oh I don't even want to think about what goes through your mind during and afterwards. We lost our place to a fire when SugahBugBug was 2 weeks old .

Fire was too close . . but far enough to save all houses in the area. . Most likely firefighters got in the fire area on time.
