What did you accomplish today?

Yeah they're all fine. Not that this is important but nobody wants them back. Long story but, they are that 1 on the block.
But I digress, yes they are fine.

I guess the most important thing is that you and your family are doing well.

If you don’t mind me asking, how does a front door and two gates add up to 25,000$ . I’m in construction and I’m thinking I need to retire to your neighborhood. I could probably do a job like that in about a day, install the door in about three hours plus the first coat of paint then one gate then the next coat of paint then the next gate and then clean up. But I’m assuming the fire did other damage also???

Well there's the fence that needs to he replaced, the trellis 10x14 that needs to replaced as well (8.5k just for that). Plus the landscaping that was destroyed and outdoor furniture....
and then we need to either replace or clean 100% of our items. They'll come in and clean the ducts, walls, ceilings and floors. Repaint walls and ceilings and replace carpet. And clean or scrap whatever we decide on. Furniture and on and on...

We should have been out for the cleaning
a while back but our insurance agent fucked up and didn't mention anything for a long while.

So now things next door are getting cleaned up, they want us out of our house for 2 to 3 weeks to clean up in here. but with covid cruising around we don't want to hotel it or whatever. So, that's how you start racking up the dollars.

Wow that sucks, sorry to hear that.

We had a fire in 2001 and lost everything so I understand. I live in the country and with no house close enough to effect us or ours effecting a neighbor I didn’t take into account that smoke damage from a neighbor might get it to your house but I did figure that the fence and other stuff were damaged.

Once again sorry that you and your family are going through this , especially right now.

Thanks bud. I appreciate the sentiment.
For us, it's an inconvenience. I can only imagine losing everything. We got lucky all things considered. At this point, we'll wait out the shelter in place. I'd rather get something chronic (haha I said chronic) than get covid... actually both would suck.
