We had a interesting homecoming last night from a wonderful 2 week holiday catching up with family and friends.
The fire brigade were in the driveway sorting out a fire in the main bedroom which was caused by the waterbed heater. Claire our daughter had popped in to collect something about 30minutes before us and she discovered the house full of smoke and the smoke alarms screaming. Called 111 and they said if she had not come home when she did the whole house was just minutes from going up!! We're counting our blessings as the damage is limited to one area. Now the hard part begins with clean up and working with insurance companies!
I am currently fighting the binge eating stress response at present so far I have not given in...

ReplyDeleteOh yuck! Gives me the willies to think about it. Our house burnt down 18 years ago and I can still smell the smoke. I'm so sorry that your homecoming was a wreck.
ReplyDeleteWhen you get a chance, blog about reactions from family re your weightloss.
OMG Liz what a terrible thing to happen. You were so luck your daughter got there when she did. It does not bear to think about. So glad no one was hurt.
