Do you have your electricity yet? If so, about what time? I need to check on my family living elsewhere that was also affected. They said there were tornadoes in Cape May area.

Our neighbor had a big tree fall, too. Right across their driveway and their neighbor's. I don't think any cars were affected. Trees down all over the place. It's so odd. I heard the storm, but it didn't sound as bad as it turned out to be. When I went out and saw the results, I was like... "What the heck happened here?!?!" Life on the east coast! At least it wasn't another Sandy!

I sleep through such hullabaloos all of the time, at night. At least it was during the day. My poor husband has to work tomorrow after all, I guess.

I have a video appointment with my psychiatrist tomorrow. Might be a phone call only.
Nope no power. Trying to sleep last night was miserable in the heat, and it wasn’t even THAT hot! Power company is supposed to come out and observe the situation at 12pm. If the website is to be believed they don’t estimate a restoration until AUGUST 10. I doubt it’ll be that long though. I think they’ll change it once they actually see the damage.

However, it is entirely possible that we won’t have power overnight again. If that’s the case I’m going to suggest to RS that we spend the night in a motel. It’s supposed to be much hotter today.

I’m also going to call up my grandma and see if she has any extra freezer space. I really don’t want to lose all the meat. It’s expensive.
