I am so sorry to hear what you have been...Hi Marla,<br />I am so sorry to hear what you have been through with the wildfires in your area of California and how you have to be prepared every fire season. I totally understand your reference to only caring about the 3 Ps: people, pets, and photos are the only things that really matter. I thinnk I would add one more P: papers (meaning important documents like passports, birth certificates, etc.). Aside from those things, almost everything else can be replaced. And I also agree with you about not being that attached to things. I had difficulty selecting my 3 items too and I thought long and hard tool. I considered my laptop as well but decided on my smartphone instead just because it is smaller and more portable. Thanks so much for sharing your story!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5074375120439328789.post-70137810676197632015-07-11T12:03:32.256-07:002015-07-11T12:03:32.256-07:00Marla,

I love quilts and I also stay cold. I had to look around my house more than once for this exercise. I am glad your family was able to recover well from the fire.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5074375120439328789.post-52883871305351539972015-07-11T11:18:02.395-07:002015-07-11T11:18:02.395-07:00Hi Marla

One important thing you can say is that everyone’s life was spared and you can thank God for that. It’s great you were able to rebuild and move forward it is good that there are others there in this special club who everyone can lean on. Photos are very important because you can’t lose those precious moments having them there to look at. I think your 3 Ps are great to carry.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
