WHEW!!!!!!!!!!! Today has been one doozy of a day!!!!
I done a pretty nice chunk of school I thought!
I was setting at the computer, Mom had went to get Bridget my sister from school, I thought I heard this clicking noise, I remembered Mom told me that she had left the oven on bcuz she was going to bake some cookies when she got home.
I went over to the oven to make sure everything was alright, it was, then I looked out the window and seen smoke!
So I got closer to the window to try to see what was burning and I seen my neighbors trailer was on fire!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I immediately started putting on different clothes, socks and shoes and stuff.
I went out the door and was looking and I started walking over that way and here came the wife of the family that lived there.
She was crying and I didn’t really know what to do.
Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that all this time I was praying for the fire to stop and right before I went out the door I knelt down and asked God to stop it.
Anyway so me and the woman just said a few things and stood there and looked on.
We were starting to get real upset because there was a fire hose laying on the ground and the fireman wasn’t spraying the house or anything.
We both were restraining ourselves from hollerin’ out, WHY AIN’T YOU DOIN’ NOTHIN’? GET TO WORK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Her husband had gone to get there little daughter from school.
She had called him but there was really nothing he could do.
She told me that she got both of her dogs out and she had a hard time getting the cats because they kept wanting to run back in because they were scared, but she finally got them out!
She didn’t have anywhere to put all the animals as there were 2 dogs and 2 cats, so I let her borrow our kennel. We happened to have two extra cages today, just enough to put 2 dogs in one and 2 cats in the other.
She told me that she left on some candles and that she was asleep but the smoke detector woke her up.
By this time, lots of firemen were there and they had started spraying and everything.
They got the fire out before it went to the ground but afterwards we went in it and there were some things that could be saved but not a lot.
I think they finally determined that either the little girls night light caught on fire or that a cat knocked over the candle in the little girls room and made it catch on fire.
I think the latter is probably what happened.
So I stayed up there a long time and helped them get some things out after the fire was over.
Then my dad made me get ready to go to town and go to a network marketing meeting with him and mom.
Then we cleaned the Coker Building Company’s office and then we came home!
So that brings a conclusion to this forever rememberable day!

Jason
