Internet just came back so I am able to continue my one blog a day without interruption:)
I spent last night during the storm watching TV, eating popcorn and talking on the phone. I didn’t lose power and only lost internet during the day today.
I have been extremely lucky. Some water went through my balcony door and my 25 year old baby (pictured below) got scratched up, but that was it!
I do realize how blessed and lucky I am! Homes and belongings have been lost, but worst of all, lives have been lost. For those souls I say a prayer. May God comfort the people that have lost loved ones.
My friend Mary lost her 11 year old cousin due to a fallen tree. I cannot imagine losing anyone, specially a child. My heart, thoughts and prayers are with her, her family and specially with the parents and surviving brother.
We don’t have power in our offices in Manhattan, so we will be working out of a rented conference room at a Hotel. I have no idea how I am going to get there. I guess if a co-worker is not driving in I will have to call a car service. Oh well, I am going to sleep now and deal with it in the morning.
Now, turn to your loved ones and tell them how much they mean to you! We don’t know how much time we have.

I agree with you …. Because we never know which day is our last, the last for friends, or the last day for humanity itself. Take some time out to tell those you love even if it is just to tell them the words. Have a nice day 😀

You truly are blessed! Glad you got out of it with limited damage, although I’m sure you are non too pleased with what did happen. How incredibly sad for those who have lost loved ones and, as you say, to lose a child – I can think of nothing worse. May God be with you all.
