    I'm so sorry you and your neighbors are going through this--it's hard enough to lose your home and possessions without the stress of worrying whether insurance or the government will help you rebuild! You're in my thoughts.

    I'm glad to hear you are safe and have a place to stay right now. Also, yay for hating ironing and having extra clothes!

    I'm so sorry to hear about the devastation and the other worries that come along with that. I hope God has something positive in store for you, and I will keep praying for you. I'm so glad you had helpers show up!

    Oh, Anne-Marie, I'm so sorry for all that you lost. It sounds like you are being positive and have a good plan to get back to normal. I'll be praying that all of it can go as smoothly as possible & with little headache as possible.

    I really do miss not being active here but it is getting closer to a time that I will be back. We pick up my new laptop next week. From my desktop computer with the flood water went through, they were able to save all my documents and pictures ( lots of photos and all my current digi layouts and products) so I am really thrilled with that. I am typing this post on a friends computer where we are now staying.
    Last Wednesday 23rd we arrived in Toowoomba ( where we moved from just over 8 years ago) to stay with friends who have stated we can live with them for as long as needed. They are easy people to get along with and they have made lots of room in their home for us as their two daughters are grown up and no longer living at home.
    The insurance estimator will be visiting our house on 13th April so hopefully not long after that we will know what direction to take. We are thinking if we end up with enough funds we will buy a unit in a retirement village.
    With being back here in the town I grew up in, yesterday we went out to lunch with my last surviving Aunt to celebrate her 84th Birthday. She is so happy to have us back for now as she has missed us a lot.
    It may not be long until you all see layouts featuring my photos from our life changing event.

    Well, I’m so glad to hear your good news as you deal with the aftermath of the floods. I’m so happy that you were able to retrieve your layouts and photos as those were truly irreplaceable. Good luck with the insurance.

    I am so glad to read that they were able to save your photos and layout and supplies and that you have a new laptop on the way AND that you have great friends who are willing to have you stay with them. All great things. Hopefully the insurance news will be good too.

    So glad to hear you were able to save your photos and digi layouts Ann-Marie and that you have somewhere to stay for as long as required. Hoping your insurance company is going to come through for you.
    I know just how long it can take to have repairs done after a flood. We had a flood at our home last July and are still unable to move back in. The insurance company has been good but the restoration people are taking forever to get anything done.

    oh Anne Marie!!!! I didn't know! I saw your status update and Sarita found me your thread.... (my neurological issues mean I miss forum posts) I wish I could help...
    Could we, once you are settled and know where you will be, start a Go Fund me page for getting you a lap top? I would be willing if you think you will be comfortable with it.
    You are always in our prayers, but now more than ever.
    Lots and lots of huggzz and, you know you can give us a shout at any time, right?
    All the love, and, like we say in Brazil (and yes, not surprised you had some of my people helping, we are everywhere!!!) we say Deus e Pai- God is Father, lets keep Faith & hope that all will be sorted.
    Huge huge huggzzz
