Hi guys.. If you've come in contact with me, you know how much I LOVE live music, and travel quite often to see bands out of state that I really enjoy... Headed to Austin to see a band yesterday afternoon, but wanted to be back at a reasonable time.... Got in, dropped my suitcase on the floor, carried in some meat from Don's in Lafayette, put it away, and ran to Wal-Mart to grab some dog food before I decided to drop...Walked in Wal-Mart... ADT called, my fire alarms were going off at my home... I just got ADT a few months ago when I decided to switch incall locations for safety, not for fire... If you've met me, you know I have 3 incredible Labs... ADT had called the fire department, they busted my back door in, got all 3 dogs with their kennels out, and extinguished the fire in less than 10 min of detection of my alarm.... Apparently, when I dropped my backpack on the stove it accidently turned one of the burners on high... In less than 5 min my kitchen had ignited... I'm so fortunate that I didn't lose my dogs or my personal belongings.. don't get me wrong, I probably had $1000 worth of stuff in my backpack alone, but I may only be down for a day or two, instead of a week of morning my beautiful puppies and a total loss of my house.... Heed to you all.... really, If I didn't have ADT I would have lost almost everything that was important in my life.... "if" you have pets, and don't have some kind of emergency fire protection, please get it.... If you love them, $89/mo for wireless service is so invaluable... People always talk about "what if" after it happens... guys, ADT saved my what if day... Maybe I should head to the casino... giggles

XOXOXO,
Tay Tay

Glad that near disaster worked out with minimal damage.

"Stuff" can be replaced. Thank goodness your pets (and loves, I'm sure) and you were not hurt.

On a lighter note, I know a better stop in Lafayette for meat

Glad it wasn't more serious and the important things are safe.

DallasRain · 04-15-2013, 10:12 PM

That's good to hear ! I am a dog lover also I have a blond cocker spaniel that we have had for 9 yrs. And he is just like one of our children .

You mean there's better meat in Lafayette besides Don's??? Damn, Did I get screwed or something?? Or maybe it was lack of being screwed.... Giggles....

btw, Lafayette is not THAT far....Just a little road trip down 10.... Yes,
I know I should just head down there, however, staying true to the lady like morals my family instilled... "never chase a man"....I'd rather wait on you guys to come a little more east.... dooohhh..

I'm sure you saw it on FB... Are you noticing that since I took over my posting here it's looking a little more like my FB status'... Giggles, do you think planking pics will help or not??? Look forward to seeing you soon... Almost texted ya yesterday to see if you wanted to grab a beer at Swamp Room... Didn't really have the desire to start the clean-up yesterday... It's getting better....Serve-Pro today....

I am glad your babies are ok.

Wow, Taylor you are very fortunate to have such good response time with the first responders/fire fighters and the good foresight to have ADT. I've got a 6 year old Boston who is my side kick and like my son. There's a that deep seated fear of what would happen if a fire started and nobody was there. I'd let all my possessions burn as long as he's ok.

Dons does have some good food! I spend at least $60-100 every time I go there and I've gotta stop in every time I pass. Love their bodan.

duckdog50 · 04-16-2013, 10:54 AM

I am glad that you and your dogs are ok.

ManOnAMission · 04-16-2013, 02:18 PM

Happy to hear your dogs are ok

Old Horn Dog · 04-16-2013, 07:16 PM

I still miss my Great Dane. He went to that Golden Fire Hydrant In The Sky about 15 yrs. ago--haven't had the heart to get another. He was such a good dog...

I want to thank you guys, sincerely, from the bottom of my heart for caring enough to respond to this post, or shoot me a PM. I'm definitely known for being "real" ie, not blowing smoke up anybody's behind...I know this hobby/profession is a somewhat secretive thing, safety, every man/woman for themselves, however, I was touched by the outpour of care here.. Even from people that have never met me...AND providers. (girls... if there is ever ANYTHING that I can do for you, please PM me.) Ask PornoDave, he knows me in real life, and knows what a massive heart I have, and how much I really strive to help others. My house will be perfect by this weekend, and that's a blessing in itself... Okay, so I never get "chickie", it's not my style, just sweetness, but wanted to really say again, thanks, ALL... Just a 2 second response by you guys made me not feel guilty about doing this... You are ALL decent people....

XOXOXO,
Tay Tay
