dm_lytle's Journal, 05 April 2009

Well no exercise today to speak of. We had a very close friend lose their house today to a house fire. My husband is on the fire department but didn't hear the actual page go out so until they turned the corner was not sure where they were going. It was a total loss. They have his truck, her car, the shop out back of the house, the church clothes they were wearing and that is it. Her purse was on the kitchen table so she lost everything in that including money that was raised to purchase graduation gifts for her grandchildren. I spent most of the day with them, and the evening running like a mad women cooking dinner for them. They are spending the night with their daughter that lives on the same property but tomorrow morning will be hard to drive past it to go to work. They are farmers so they still have work to do. They lived there for 45 years and pretty much built the house with own two hands. I am going to some businesses tomorrow to see about collecting donations for them for clothing and shoes for them to work in. But I am getting ready for bed I am going to have a busy week this week I can feel it already. I hope everyone else has a better week than I did day.

Well they are staying in the parsonage with the church, and I was able to get about $150.00 in clothes donated to Jim for work and Maggie had a friend that gave her some clothes to be able to wear as well.
