Merry, I hpoe the power stays on for ya and you and the Mr. are hunkered down! We are camping out in the living room tonight. The kids are rolling around in blankets and having a grand ol' time!

Still on just now, but it went off for about a minute around 3:45. The worst part of the storm is supposed to be from now through the evening. Mr.'s home safe, and we're ready if the power goes out. He's getting ready to go over our list, so we can get our Christmas shopping organized.

Hi everyone! I have not been on here in a week!!! I have been very busy but we have been having fun! It's that time of year when we have lots of family things going on and will be busy from now until after Christmas.

Friday we went to the kids Halloween School Carnival, Saturday we went to Six Flags with my mom, daughter, grandkids and Wayne. My 6 year old grandson is brave this year and riding the coasters (he wouldn't in the past) but only wants to sit next to Grandpa Wayne, I guess he feels safe with him. My 3 year old granddaughter wants to ride EVERYTHING but she is not tall enough for the big coasters. My 8 year old grandson is riding all the big coasters and loves them. Sunday was church and work.

I miss you all and praying for those on the east coast. I am not sure if I can catch up on all the post from the week and hope I haven't missed any big news. Praying for all those who are ill or on hard times.

Stay Merry my friends!!! :???:

Nice to see you, I was just thinking about where you've been.

Good evening,

It was 1 year ago tonight we had that freak October snowstorm, and now today, Sandy is here. I worked until 3pm drove home there was a tree down across the road, the State of Connecticut shut down all of there major highways. The rain hasn't been to bad but the wind has been whipping around pretty badly our trees are swaying to and fro. Some branches have fallen off of our two large maple trees, we worry about those trees falling the most. I hope all of you and your loved ones are safe, I will be on now and then if the power holds up.

Stay safe.

Haven't been on in a while and don't have much time to post now. We lost all power about an hour ago so I am trying to not use my phone much since we have no way of charging it. But I wanted to update y'all and hope everyone else in Sandy's path is not as bad off as we are. The worst is supposed to hit us tonight and tomorrow (I'm located right where the storm will be hitting tomorrow at 8am according to all the weather maps).

Hope you all are well. [\COLOR][\I]

The wind is whipping right now! If you look up "Cape May County Moms" on Facebook, you can get a good idea of the damage the shore is getting right now. Boardwalks just washed away!

This facebook page won't come up for me

and any that do are all closed groups. Did Mr. Judesmama make it home safe?
