My cell service has been spotty so I haven't been here to update. We lost 2 big trees which thankfully fell away from homes, cars, and people. It's been 24+ hrs in the dark and not even a hint of when we might get power back. I'm guessing the weekend at the earliest. Schools are closed tomorrow again but I have to work. Downed trees and wires make travel slow and difficult because so many streets are closed. And the temperature took a turn down so it's a bit chilly tonighht. Kids are sleeping in sweatshirts and warm socks!
My parents and brother are both on Long Island and without power but otherwise safe.
All in all I'm grateful that we fared well. Power will eventually return but people can't be replaced. My kids are a bit stir-crazy but we'll get back in a routine as soon as possible.
Prayers to everyone else impacted by this devastating storm. I went for a run this afternoon and was shocked by the destruction!
