Has anyone heard from @JimLiohey to see how he is doing ?

@JimLiohey , you have an update? hope things are far better.

Hey fellas. Hope you all are well.

Things are going ok. I have been working my ass off trying to save money. We are in a temporary home. I have been actively searching for a home. Things have gotten better mentally for me. I was really struggling for awhile there.

We had things stored in a vehicle at the burned house and someone broke into it and stole my laptop and all my wife’s farmers market tables.

People suck but we are all doing ok. I’ve done everything in my power to keep my kids happy. That’s my only goal. Everything else will fall into place. There is nowhere to go but up!

Miss ya’ll. I’ll be around more once we are settled somewhere.

We finally found a house. I know its only been 4 weeks but it feels like its been an eternity. It is a 4 bedroom house with a pole barn. We are now residents of Topinabee.

Someone reached out to us via facebook. It was his parents retirement home. It is fully furnished and ready to go. I am signing the lease tomorrow. We are all so excited to have some kind of normalcy! I really wanted to buy something but we just didnt have enough money. The gofund me is pretty much all we have besides what I have saved the last couple weeks. We were always paycheck to paycheck with only me working, when I say we lost everything I absolutely meant it. Our whole life was in that little house. It was all our kids had ever known. They are doing fantastic though, I love how resiliant they are! We are so overwhelmed with all of the love and support.

I am happy today for the first time in a month.

cheers guys. love yall.

by the way Ginger is one of the puppies we adopted out in march from Archie and Callies litter. (archie was a hornball) her owners offered her back and we gladly accepted.

Also… I should have mentioned… 4 weeks isn’t a short time when your world is turned upside down. It’s an eternity.

Never for a second apologize for feeling that way!

Well, for a kid, Mullett Lake is a great place to be in the summer. I grew up there myself, exit 313.

Just got keep a lookout for this guy. He might be harmless, but I wouldn’t take any chances.
