Holly Molly.......woke up this morning at 3.00am with every light on in my house...We got 27 inches of snow...no power since 3.00am Friday....no heat,electric,etc...I have a gas burning stove in the living room that we hadn't used in 2 yrs...it was our savior...I have an old Victorian home with 5 bedrooms upstairs and one down stairs....we closed everything off except the kitchen,living room and one bedroom above..It worked..downstairs was about 65 degrees and upstairs about 55...had to throw out most of the food..in the frig...had candles,flash lights,etc...walked around the village and met so many neighbors we haven't seen...it was so erie walking thru the village and the entire area was dark..CNN was in our village doing interviews but with no power we never saw it...no TV yet but computer just turned on...I saw Rutgers was -4 vs DePaul..OMG..I would of jumped on that big time..I had the number at -10..maybe someone was hurt like Ndiaye or something...no way 4 pts..RU at home beat some good teams...I heard on the radio and was praying Depaul won..But heard RU won by 9 or 11.damn...Also liked Cuse big time last nite over Nova....of course these guys win when I have nothing on the games...
Just got a call from my supe in school..No school tomr..they can't dig out the 30 buses, the garage has no power,there is 2 feet of snow up the roof of the HS...the parking lot hasn't been cleared and the school is running on generators...
This is the worst storm I can ever remember.I think we had as much snow once or twice but never the damage and outages...a have a huge tree limb that came down and just missed my house by 2 feet...The snow of the limb smacked into my window. I thought it was someone throwing snowballs when i heard the thud...but on the good side.....a friend of mine plowed my driveway 3 times and and my next door neighbor did my sidewalk.....with his snowblower....then sat nite I see someone doing my sidewalk again...I go out there and I don't know him....Its Mrs Sutters son who lives 4 houses down the street.His mom lives alone and she is a retired math teacher..she had 3 of 4 of my kids in school...I asked him "why are you doing my sidewalk"..he said you and your wife always stop and talk to my mother when she is sitting on her front porch.You always ask her if she needs anything,etc...I thanked them....sometimes when we lose our computers,TV,electric,......damn..I'm typing this and again lost tv-computer..goping to post this in case I lose it all..sorry for the poor grammer,spelling,etc
