It is a waiting game - not knowing if the fire will swing round to our house or not. At first it looks hopeful. We are just on the boundary of the fire area. Then it starts to look bleak. Orianne continues to be amazing and strong.
I keep a close track on my thoughts and feelings and realize that if the house goes, it is not the end of the world - just a lot more work than I need! Some part of me fells good at the thought of being unburdened from all the stuff we own. The house is full of beautiful and cherished objects - many of them irreplaceable antiques. But they are still simply material objects - not of essential importance.
All this time we continue to meet and get a lot of important Bountea planning work done. The other members of our "Bounteam", Moria and Seth are wonderful, very supportive and compassionate. We interview and hire a new member of the team, Aaron. He immediately becomes our Warehouse and Production Manager. It feels great - except that I have this slow burning anxiety about the house.
