What is the paint situation??????? I have never heard of this but, if I put
out buildings up, it may be useful. I am very lucky here. The fire chief is a
friend and able to tell me what size water line I had to put in etc. Don't
even ask what it cost but it was well worth it. Please know I am 1/2 mile off
the road and we won't go any further than that. I really hope people will
explore their options. I traded granite counter tops and /////////////// well
you get the idea for safety and security items.
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.

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.
