I survived a fire...
2 years ago
So much stuff happened I was only able to post updates on Twitter when I could. Here's a rundown of everything that happened.
[14/5 4pm]
Quick setback cause of course everything happens to me yey
House currently filled with smoke, my room more than others. Commissions might take a bit longer than expected, excuse me for the set back.
[14/5 9pm]
Update to give more context and how it went
Mother fired up our wood stove, and smoke came down from our attic. We guessed that the guys that did our insulation shoved the pipe a little, but noooo
Thank god we though it was a good idea to call the fire fighters.
Apparently an old relic of the past, a decoder of a dismissed old line, apparently was... still active? Or something, so it just... decided to combust into flames~ And it apparently went SO hot to start a fire while being submerged in fireproof insulation...
Firefighters stopped the fire. Only thing is that while being there the decoder melted part of our electric line, sooo, no lights! But I got my pc so I will probably be able to work. However, I might be a little slower to help around the house more.
For today though, too many emotions, the smoke alone plus the stress of all these days that was building up was about to give me an anxiety attack, but "fortunately" the adrenaline from seeing the firefighters helped me calm down.
And no, the firefighters weren't sexy smh... 😅
[15/5 12am]
Last update for today. Now it looks like the water that was used to put out the fire has damaged the main electrical components so we're fully out of energy. Commissions are now on pause, if within 5 days I can't work on them, come to me and I'll refund.
I'm more than spent...
[15/5 4am]
Syke! Had 30min before water started coming out from the roof again. Now we are waiting as the firefighters work out how to put it out. My computer was quickly saved, I can't feel my hands, we're waiting to get checked for possible monoxide poisoning. Keep you updated~
[15/5 3pm]
So, what happened, it looks like the first squad wasn't able to put out the fire immediately, and so the fire crawled in our attic, melting the water pipes which started leaking. It was frankly a nightmare. We were taken out and sent to the hospital.
Many firsts "today": surviving a fire, surviving watergeddon, being in an ambulance, having to go into a hyperbaric chamber (cool but super boring). Now we got all the monoxide out of our systems, we got to father's home safely, but there's a lot to be done.
[now]
Today I should be able to have everything up and continue with the comms I had. Now though a little beacon of fun:
The press: Roof of house burns down...
Me: Ugh, the press really? And it didn't go that-
The press: three women intoxicated
Me: @ °/// °@
