I am admittedly someone with a lot of "stuff." I don't think of myself as someone with lots things, but if asked, I think that I would have always admitted as much. Well after a fire, you have to make a list of everything that was destroyed. Furniture, clothes, everything. It is amazing how the list grows as you mentally tour the rooms and go to the cleaners. Even more amazing is when you start putting dollar figures on replacing your things. I have been surprised. Astounded. Shocked. Bamboozled. How can it be that we had that much stuff? We did though. And we will again I suppose. But in the interim, we are just trying to survive the post-fire process and enjoy a life with less things.
The up side to having fewer things is that a small condo feels big.
For your pictorial enjoyment, I have included pictures of some of our furnishings after the cleaning process. As you can see, some of our furniture is not quite the same.
