FIRE

Posted on May 30th, 2007 by Gwen : Expatriette Gwen
Fire
Friends, loved ones.  I'll have time for a more thorough update later.  For now, our house burned down late last night, around midnight.  It's now uninhabitable and I'm living, along with my five other housemates, in a motel.  We're all safe.

The Red Cross blew my mind with their friendliness, genorosity and caring.  My grandmother's composure at 3am her time astounded me.  Friends and neighbors came out of the woodwork to offer love, well wishes and shoes. 

For now, we rest in a space of Not Knowing.

Rest well my friend.  So glad to hear you are all safe.  Take a DEEP breath and remember, it was just material possessions you lost.  Can I send anything to help?

Ah, Gwen, so sorry!  Relieved that you are safe.  Not the time really but I certainly hope that something tremendous arises from these ashes but now is probably for grieving. 

Make a list of stuff you need and we'll get it to you. 

Be Well - all of you.

Dear friends,
I am so touched and inspired by your well-wishes and offers of supplies.  At the moment we're re-grouping and details are emerging as each hour unfolds.  For the time being, if you really do want to donate, please consider a gift to the Red Cross on our behalf.  If you want to send gift cards for us to eat a Whole Foods (yes, we're still taking care of our body/minds!!) or wherever you like, you can find our new/temporary address at Saxy's Cafe in Boulder on my profile page at Zaadz.  All six of us will share anything that is sent our way.  And we're grateful for any assistance we get.
