HI All:
we just received our lights at 6:00 am this morning Wednesday.
Been out since Sunday.....
Lost all our food in freezer and refrigerator.
Tough job trying to buy ice.....Thankfully it was downgraged to a tropical storm as you must know.
Cranston, Rhode Island and WarwicK, Rhode Island hit the hardest because of all the trees we have.
Don't know much about the rest of the areas.
Living with 2 men and even a male dog has been, to say the least, not so good.....(LET ME CLAIFY, HUSBAND, SON, DOG.) (smile)'
they are used to being busy and everything was at a standstill. Giacomo, the dog, wanted all the attention.....
Some of the areas not too far from us did have lights so we were able to go out for breakfast....that helped. We did have gas, hot water also, so we were lucky.
I feel so sorry for all the families with children...having to destroy all the food.....
Last night our neighbor borrowed a generator, it was meant for commercial use....it was near our bedroom and so loud we could not sleep, had to move to our living room.....thankfully the lights went on this morning....
Well that's all folks....now the shopping begins.....We will have to be careful where we shop.....
Well one good thing, Giacomo did not land in Emerald City, Kansas, he was luckier than Toto in the Wizard of Oz......however I do have the Red sequin shoes.......he was such a pest if there was a plane leaving I would have put him on it.....all he wanted to do was play ball....throwing his dog bones up in the air chasing them and barking.....what a sight......
He is fun though....Stay safe all.
Bye for now
Ev
