I've had fires on either side of my house.
The first one was probably a couple years ago. I just remember laying on the couch watching TV and listening to Katie bark for about 10 minutes before getting my lazy butt up to bring her in. She was running along the fence barking at something, in hindsight I guess I should have went to look over the fence, after alot of calling I got her to come to me and got her inside. She was still antsy though and was pacing the front room. About 5 mins later I seen a police car pull in the driveway thru the window. When I want to the door the cop yelled that the house next door was on fire and I rushed to find Dad. I still remember looking thru the back door and seeing the flames and feeling the heat. I still believe that it was set on purpose because of the way Katie was acting and the fact that the fire started at a window closest to our fence and the gate of the fence on the other side of ours. I'm no expert but the house was engulfed in 15 mins. , which seems to me like it had something to speed up the process.
The second was a couple months later. I just remember being woke up by something and staring at my ceiling for a couple minutes before realizing that there were lights like from a police car or such going outside. I looked out my window and seen fire trucks at the house on the other side of us. I ran to get Dad and Mom but they were already outside. Our neighbors HUGE shed was on fire. It was sad because there was alot of valuable stuff in there plus the guy's grandson's dirt bike and go cart.
Hold your head high.
Don't ever let 'em define
The light in your eyes.
Love yourself, give them Hell.
You can take on this world.
You just stand and be strong
And then fight
Like a girl.
