    Thank you so much for sharing what must’ve been terrifying! I’ve had a phobia of cooking and candles inside my van for fear of fire risks, but I didn’t even think of how fast it would fill up with smoke until you said so, and succumbing to smoke inhalation/losing consciousness before getting the door open to fresh air and escaping is a very real threat we can now stay mindful of. I really appreciate this, and my heart goes out to you as a soul sister way down the road in middle America. ❤

      You're very Welcome, I think we can never be too careful in these small environments. I will definitely be more careful from now on. ❤️🌲

    I just bought a package of the led flickering tealights to put in my cute glass votive size gypsy cauldrons. Amazing how realistic they look flickering cheerily in the RV window. They're cheap and last quite awhile. Glad you weren't hurt. My family is gone as well, but I enjoy my solitude with Jesus and my pets out in the desert.

    I think I commented before on your video about the possibility of your van being moved by an outside force. But it was about your stove falling off the counter by a sudden movement in that case. Now this unfortunately accident with a lit candle catching your hair on fire, and why? Because of a sudden movement outside that you made you react. You being enclosed in a very small space and keeping an open fire going at any time, as you know now, is just an accident waiting to happen. You are doing all you can do in life to keep going since losing your daughter. I understand that. Part of that is creating calming atmospheres to manage and cope with each day. These steps of self care are helping with your progress. Keep going to the places you need to go for your healing. Give yourself the gift of nature as much as you can. Just stay clear of parking lots to find your peace, my dear.

    Hi Wanda!! First of all thank God your ok!😮. I am the one that has the same minivan that you have. I was going to ask you how tall your kitchen cabinets are. Also Merry Christmas to you I am by myself also this Christmas I don't get into Christmas very much ethier since my son passed in 2021. And to make things even worse my mother passed away on Christmas Day!!!! But I talk about this because I am not looking for sympathy I just want to keep their memory alive 😆. I am trying to get my Dodge Grand Caravan ready since I am planning a cross country trip in the Spring. You are doing a wonderful job with the videos keep up the good work!!!! Once again Merry Christmas and Happy New Years🎉🎉🎉🎉

      Hi, I recall your comment from before . Special occasions are a little harder when you're missing a loved one. I agree, I am not looking for any sympathy , but I promised my daughter that I will never forget her.
