Home at last...sorta

Well....22 days after leaving our house in smoke filled pandemonium, we are somewhat back. At least we are able to let the girls hang out here while we try to restore some sort of normal. We still need to have carpets steamed and insulation replaced and hopefully before this day is done we will have mattresses.

Emotionally I am exhausted and done, but then I look out the window as I type this and see three missing houses so how is that for perspective.

I am still wrestling with all of my emotions. God is still God regardless of circumstances. I don't doubt that for one second. However I have a hard time saying we are blessed when I know that the people who lost their houses are no less blessed. I am thankful. I guess that is appropriate.
