what a mess....glad your family is OK. Good luck navigating the insurance and rebuilding and everything else.
If I was in the USA, I'd offer you my place to stay at. Unfortunately, I am across the ocean. Good luck.
have a meeting today with insurance adjusters and building experts. i'm hoping we get an equitable settlement. we will probably be out of the house for at least 6 months so we'll have to rent an apartment. insurance will cover most of this unless renovations take longer than expected. we lost a lot of personal property, more than we are covered for . and yes that includes art. saturday night we auctioned off the salvaged work from the show that was hanging in the gallery. we sold all the pieces. this is going to be an arduous and trying process. on top of all this, i am opening a bar/grill and am knee deep in work there. oh, and i have a magazine to produce and it's, YEAH , the holidays.
Bad thread title. Too soon? I kid, man! Meh, my bad humor won't replace your lost stuff. Recover fast, dear sir.
