Looking inside the shed you can see the tremendous char in the area where the fire broke out.
These last two photos are taken inside the house in the laundry room. You can see the wood is charred. Had there been no insulation between this wall and the wallboard we installed 2 years ago, things would look entirely different today.
Had it been another 10-20 minutes and the house would have become victim to this fire. We are so thankful for the wonderful fire department we have ~ they saved our home from devastation. The house was filled with smoke, so we do have smoke damage, some rooms more than others. Everyone is safe, the cat is safe...Ashley's prom dress for this weekend smells like smoke, but it is fine.
The upside in all of this....I finally get my house really deep cleaned...and I don't have to do it! :) Unfortunately, my business is going to have to take a back seat until everything is "back to normal" again.

Very scary but I'm so glad it wasn't worse and that no one was hurt and the cat is safe too!
Scary - so glad it was no worse! And the cleaning is always nice :P
So - are you going to have some blackened or Cajun style soaps now :P hey - if restaurants can do it...
Very glad to hear that everyone is okay! Thank goodness for that wall and the insulation!
And 21 WOOT Salute for the deep cleaning that you don't have to do :)
Wow! I'm so glad it didn't burn down your house! Way to look on the bright side with the deep cleaning! :D
Oh wow, that must have been scary. I'm glad you were home to notice it before it spread to the house and that nobody was hurt.
