minor car repair work done (or major, if they're a mechanic

. I was married for five years, and my (then) hubby was working on my car in our garage (in february). He was working on the fuel line and somehow some gas leaked out and then the pilot light on the water heater clicked on... and...
wait for it...
BOOM!
John was fine - he had gone around to the other side of the garage to get a rag to clean up the spill.
The insurance guy asked me what kind of car it HAD been. (It was a mustang.) I went back inside and saved my dogg, but only one of our two kitties made it.

(They were hiding.)

awww, so sad, After hurricane Andrew our electricity went out, and they said our neighborhood would be out for a week, My mom had electricity so we( my husband, my two kids) moved in with my mom and dad. We thought it would only be a week, so we left our cat in the house with food and water and would check on her every day, mom said it would be too much to bring her over. Well I told my husband after you get off work, go by the house, they are saying on the news to be sure and turn off the curcit breakers to prevent power surges when they turn back power on. So he went to the house, I don't know what he did but he didn't turn it off like I asked, he came to my mom's house and he was sitting down eating supper and the phone rang, it was my father in law, He said the neighbors called your house is on fire, I laughed and said yeah right, he is a practial joker, I guess when my mother in law realised I wasn't believing him she got on the phone. My husband and I went to our house fireman and police were all around we had to park two blocks away, I got there, all I could say was my Cat. The fireman went back in the house and found her under our bed, she was scared to death, because of all the lights, It was at night, so they had these lights set up, she scratched the hell out of me across my chest, but I wouldnt let her go, got her to the car. Ended up at my mom's with the cat for another 6months while the damage was repaired, $40,000. I told the story how she died 5 yrs later, but that day she used up one of her lives.
PS. A neighbor said the husband was there earlier so they thought maybe he started the fire, but the fire was caused by the hurricane, the wind damage caused by the tornado that remove our carport cover had pulled out the main wire from the fuse box, thats what cause the fire. Fireman said luckly he didn't turn off the fuse box, cause if we had come home turned it on and gone to bed, we could have been trapped by the fire.
