Feeling Frustrated

I am so frustrated! Have you ever been in a situation that you just don't know how to feel? Well, that is how I am tonight. School fire has got me down, way down. I just want my stuff! Not even all of it, just one book that I wrote a story of my aunt Val in called "Our Heros." And one of her files that has her handwriting on it. Is that too much to ask? My wonderful aunt Val is truly my greatest hero. She passed away just over 4 years ago. When she died, since I was the teacher in the family I got most of her teaching stuff. Where would you put that kind of stuff if you were a teacher? In the school, huh! That's where it all was. Hundreds of books with "this book belongs to Miss Bleazard" in the front, hundreds if not thousands of files of her awesome teaching stuff, all of her good teaching stuff. Luckily or unluckily I gave all files that I didn't want to my great friend Shelly McKeever, whom I teach with, which means it's all there too! Wow, Oh wow I really want her stuff! I think I would be okay with them keeping ALL of MY things if I could just have those two special things! My Hero book and a sample of her handwriting that's all over her files..... Anybody want to stage a break in? It would only take me about 30 seconds inside the building cause I know right where these things are.....anyone, anyone?

I know that you are going thru rough stuff. I don't even know what I would feel like... Well... yes I do. When my parents house burned down, I cried for days because I wanted to get some of my stuff. All of my baby pictures were gone and I've tried to get some of my friends to get me their copies of school photos. I guess just hang it there. I'm so sorry. Hey... I still want my cards!!! I signed up for a silent auction to make 10 handmade cards for the YM/YW to raise money for supplies. And I'm way down on my inventory. So I still want them pplleeaassee!
Love and miss you. I'll help you break into anywhere you want!!!
