    (*hug*) (*hug*) (*hug*) Gosh that is tough! You seem to be looking on the bright side of this very difficult situation, good for you. Like you said, at least you and your mum weren't in the house and you have got your MP3.

    Try not to let all this get in the way of your test... good luck on the test by the way.

    I'm so sorry to hear that. Yes, the important thing is that you weren't home. Still....it can be devastating. What are you going to do?

    Yes - and how have your parents taken things?

    It is a pretty devastating sort of situation - hope you all manage to come thru OK without too much stress.

    I'm so sorry to hear that, and I really hope you and your family can get sorted very soon. Try not to let it get you down. (*hug*)

    Congrats on the exam pass (even though it isn't official yet). Hopefully you can get into a job with decent pay now, which will help you replace some of what you've lost.

    Wow- First of all I'm so glad to hear that none of you were at home, and that
    you're all fine! Second of all, I must say I'm also amazed by your attitude about it.

    Yes - good on you for having the great attitude. Life sometimes throws you a curve, and you have to go with it. You can look at it as an end or a new beginning. Sounds like you've chosen the latter. I'm glad you and your family were safe.
