You are more than welcome, I only wish I could do something more tangible.

If you think it would be of help perhaps you could also pass the info in this link on to your friend.

Veterinary Help for Hurricane Sandy Victims

Turns out we miscommunicated somehow! I thought my Boyfriend said HIS house was gone, he meant his neighbors, and he said he THOUGHT his would be. The township posted pictures of all the properties. His house is in one piece! His Grandma's car is also still there. He may be able to go back to get some stuff tomorrow.

Sending all the best to the PT'ers who have been affected by Sandy. We've never had to live through something like this so it's hard to comprehend the horrible damage we keep watching on the news. At worse we get power outages of a day and get snowed in for a couple of days but with snowblowers and tractors, payloaders, it doesn't take long to get out from under. But we never get the kind of hurricanes you get. I hope the predicted Nor'easter slips quietly into the ocena and loses force.

I was in Florida on vacation while all this was unfolding, but got reports from my catsitters. Other than my cats becoming totally neurotic during the storm, everything was OK at my place. Poor little boos couldn't wait for us to get home on Friday, and were velcro (tm) kitties all weekend! I hope all the folks without power get it back soon. A piece of good news about Wednesday's storm: it's supposed to track more easterly so the effects should be minimal.

For all of my PT friends in New Jersey, if you are in need of help as a result of last week's storm click on the following link. It will take you to the "Hurricane Sandy Information Center". It provides information on what help is available and how to get what you need. If you have a problem accessing the link, please pm me.

Granddaughter's university starts back with classes today, but she is still without power at her condo. Odd - since it is only a little over a mile from campus. The lighthouse where her boyfriend lives got power back 2 days ago, so they have moved from one of his relative's houses, back to his place. Thankfully, she listened to her Dad's advice when he told her to take a lot along when she had to evacuate, so she's had clothes enough to get by on, plus all of her school books, laptop, etc. I do imagine this little "adventure" is starting to get pretty darn old tho, since it will be 2 weeks this Friday since she has been displaced.

And today the Nor'easter is marching up the coast. Hope it's not too bad for those already affected by Sandy. They are calling for wet snow here from this storm, later today.....

I got stuck at work. An half hour drive took me an hour. I almost got into a huge accident going 25m MPH and I come home to find no power. I'm beyond upset, annoyed, disgusted and snappy. Not to mention, I found out my coworkers house got washed away in the hurricane. All in all this day has not been one of the best
