A thought to those who are building or remodeling: fire suppression
sprinkler systems are available for very reasonable prices. Check
it out. And don't be put off by jerks in the business . I have had
approximately 6000 square feet (basement, house, garage and partial
attic) done for well under $9000 and they traveled appx 120 miles
one way to install and maintain the system. B and B out of
Louisville Ky did my home and I got an equal or better quote from
Bullitt. B & B was able to do the ceiling/glycol system that
included the garage (important for animals) and it is a property
saving system (more head and not dependent on people/animals getting
out of the structure). However, one jerk quoted me a system that,
according to him, was the only one that met state requirements, cost
appx $40,000.00. Several fire chiefs/assistant fire chiefs used B &
B and are extremely pleased with the coverage.......and so are the
insurance companies. All of this is to say, check it out. And
check it out with more than one company if you get someone who is
being a total jerk. It really may fit in your budget. It certainly
makes me sleep a lot easier. The volunteer fire department here is
totally wonderful and I support it 110 per cent but there is only so
much you can do in a rural area. These systems are becoming more
common in metro areas too. Mine is a new build and I could not bare
the though of leaving my little ones here alone without protection I
could provide. Take what you can use and leave the rest.
As for the missing little ones, please try to calm yourself and send
out wonderful, strong beams of light to them so them know where to
come and be with you. They are confused as are you. And blessings
to you and all of them.
If you have men
who will exclude any of God's creatures
from the shelter
of compassion and pity, you will have men who
will deal likewise
with their fellow man.
St. Francis
