About the book... After the fire, our attorney suggested that I might want to keep a journal, and I did. This was a great idea. Not only did this relatively simple task make it easier for me to remember what happened and when it happened, but it also made it easier to deal with the situations that sprung up. Later I played with the idea of converting this into a book. Our challenges seen through our eyes. This journal shows the path we took to deal with the insurance companies, we had two insurance companies to haggle with. Some of the the legal hurdles that were thrown into our path and, at the same time, some of the life situations that we had to face. We were dealing with the extremely hard West Nile Virus, creating a new life, and the aftermath of hurricane Jeanne.
