Good News, Bad News?


Hi!! How are you all?! Oh I have missed you all!! So what do you want, good or bad?


I'm going with good news first.

Sew it together was awesome. I don't have words or as pictures to describe how incredible it was hanging out with such amazing chicks. I think once I get 'back on line' I will pinch some peeps pictures and tell you about some of my new bff ;)

Now for the bad news....
 
While I was in Melbourne, we had a kitchen fire. Everyone is ok! Thank god! But my house......not so much. We are in temporary accommodation for at least the next 4 weeks. Hence why I am blogging for the first time in nearly 2 weeks. So I'm blogging from macca's and hopefully will be back on line with mobile internet thingy soon. I can read emails with my still broken phone but am not so good a replying. Bit tricky with such a small screen ;) 
 
And just because I told the lovely ladies at sew it I would post pictures.

Kitchen :( 
Black smoke everywhere but the bed rooms :( Including all over some quilts, fabric, stock etc. And it doesn't want to come out :'(.....

Sorry about the quality. The pic were taken with my iphone.
So. That's that then. I must run now and drive the 1/2 hour to school for pick up and then 1/2 'home'. 2 hours in the car every day. GREAT!! xox

Oh no! I hope everything gets back to normal for you sooner rather than later! All the best with the cleanup and re-build, looking forward to seeing it all take shape again. I hope nothing too precious was damaged beyond repair! Sophie

Hang in there. What a mess. Every one else I know would have packed up and taken the first plane home. Bother (I won't put bad words on your blog) about the quilts and fabric. (What did the nice insurance lady say?)xx

It was lovely to meet you at SIT. I am so sorry about the fire.

Oh my goodness. You are seriously never going to be allowed to come to another SIT, are you??

It looks way worse than you described. And, oh no, the fabric and quilts. Keep us posted, yeah?

Jodie must really mean want to help - she offered twice!

Have been thinking of you loads and while I am really glad no one was hurt let me just say - BUGGER!!!!!!!

Hope the nice insurance person was your friend when s/he came to visit and that you can organise those kids into orderly working parties. Hey, you know, someone has to clean all of that mess up.

Unknown said...

Been thinking about you. Glad you are all ok but man that sucks..Hope everything is cleaned up very soon.

Oh Bianca that sucks pigs bottoms big time. I'm so very sorry it's happened. I seriously hope no-one was hurt (doesn't sound like it) and that the process of getting you back into your home is speedy. Fingers crossed your insurance people are cooperating. And as others have said, anything we can do? You know we bloggers like to help when we can!
