Hurricane watch

Last year this time we had a total freak blizzard. It was the strangest thing. And that was after having Hurricane Irene during the summer and some really mad weather that was strange for even New England. Now we're on alert for Hurricane Sandy and she's supposed to collide with a blizzard and they're calling it Frankenstorm. We were very lucky last year in that we didn't lose power at all but half the state was without power for weeks and weeks. I'm not really concerned with that happening this time but you never know. We're as ready as we can be -- plenty of food and water and dog food. Don't know what else we can do. Wish I had some battery powered lamps just in case but candles will have to do. We will have all the electronics charged up and even if we lose power and run down the electronics, we can always charge them up again in the cars. What I AM worried about is if we don't get much on Monday morning, I'll have to go to work. And I don't want to have to drive home from work in gale winds -- even if it goes down to a Nor'easter I have lots of trees on the way. Oh well, I'll be in God's hands with everyone else. On the upside - I DO love weather!!
