A lot of homes on LI North Shore still have no power from Sandy, LIPA is saying it might be Thanksgiving.

I hear there are still gas lines.

This is sick.

Boy Howdy and several other expletives. ENOUGH already. Those poor folks. YOU poor folks. Hurry home 2BNTB and Jimbo and Mrs.Jimbo.

Sell out and LEAVE that part of the world.

For the time being with snow falling:

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas.

Hope you all soldier through all this. I spent one New Year's Eve (1983) stuck in a snow bank about 40 miles outside of Laramie, Wyoming after my car started twirling on an icy Interstate 80. I ended up fairly well buried in a snow bank. Good Samaritans had been stopping by the various vehicles stuck in the snow banks because of the black ice.

A tow truck eventually got me and I spent New Year's Eve waching one of the Porky's movies. In hindsight, the snow bank might have been more entertaining if it had not been so cold.

The roads are slick from snow where I am or so the drivers tell me. I will find out on the drive home. Stay safe everyone.

We are trying really hard to remain positive. Some hours it's not as easy as others. We are still waiting for insurance adjusters to meet with us. FEMA was here today and was very helpful in answering questions and guiding us along in what will be a long process. So far we have ripped out walls, sheetrock,insulation and flooring in the 7 rooms on first floor. Taken a zillion digital pics for documentation. All our furniture is at the curbside along with everything else that was destroyed. It is an ugly mess. Sad to look up & down the street and see the same thing repeated house after house.

But as I have said before we are safe, we have shelter with family and we do have a home that can be rebuilt. Gee, it looks like we will be building two homes at the same time - one in TV and one in PPB! So that's what keeps me going and focused. Once we do our design mtg next week, then TV can handle the rest. I know that they will turn out a great product that we will love and enjoy. Hubby and I will work on whipping our NJ home back into shape and it will be better and stronger than before -- just like us

Thank you all from the bottom of my heart for your words of encouragement and support. It means the world to mean. And for those who have also been touched by the effects of this devastation, either directly or indirectly, you are all in my thoughts and prayers.

Glad it was electric. Much better to hear.
