Hey Farmgirls!!
I just talked to Karen on the phone. They are okay . . able to stay at her mom's house who lives across the street.
My hubby and I have gone through this exact same thing . . . so I was able to offer her some suggestions about their recovery plan, going through the insurance process, accepting offers for help, etc., etc.
IT IS OVERWHELMING!!! But you can get through it!!!!

If you are looking for suggestions for how you can help right now.
- They need clothes . . . got out of house with only what they were wearing.
- Karen needs a computer to set up to use at her mom's.
- She homeschools their boys and lost all their books . . so will
need those replaced.

CASH DONATIONS . . . or gift cards to places like Walmart . . are ALWAYS helpful.

I have her address if you need it . . . and I have her cell phone number.
Email me if there is anything else that I can do . .
THANKS FARMGIRLS!!!
CJ

OMG, I am so very sorry, I wish I was closer, I have a big guest/bunk house and plenty of food. I wish I could do something, but they are all in my families prayers.

I have clothing sizes and they have set up a donation account with a local band United Bank. Ladies really any thing and everything a card or 5 bucks. Just show some support. Sometime that is all we need.

Hey Farmgirls!!

I talked with Karen again this morning . . . she said that sending WALMART GIFT CARDS is a GOOD idea. She does go shop at the one in the town 15 miles away regularly.

She also said that all one has to do is call the bank and ask to transfer funds into the benefit account. IF YOU WANT THAT PHONE NUMBER EMAIL ME.

She will try to find out if . . . and how . . one can donate to her PayPal (through her Etsy shop) and will call me back with that info later today.

They are doing okay and are getting MARVELOUS support from their community. She will be working with their insurance adjuster this morning in just a few minutes . . said they'd be busy for a while.

I hope this helps you Farmgirls more with knowing how to help.

She also said to tell all of you "THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!!! THANK YOU!!! SHE LOVES YOU . . . EVERYONE!!!!

And I thank you!!!
CJ

I also have clothing sizes now
