I just spoke with my son and he and his sisters are as prepared as one can be as far as Sandy is concerned.
I will be in touch all day and pray for the best.

TM, I hope that your kids are safe. I also worry about Lakers Fan.
I went and voted today. I'll be on the cruise when the election is held, so I wanted to get that in. I usually vote early anyway. People are constantly knocking on my door. When the gentleman did this evening I was able to cut him off by saying I'd already voted. I am just so sick of this mess. I am a democrat and have a sign up in my yard, so every republican in the county is constantly beating on my door asking me to vote for them...like it'll happen. I think they get sadistic pleasure in it.
Moiraine - doesn't it feel good to go ahead and vote and be able to say - I'm done with this. We should have booked for next week or maybe this week. I hate to answer the phone.
Heard from the DS around 4 yesterday things weren't too bad for him in Brooklyn at that time. Will check again today.

TM, I just started on the packing a few minutes ago. Ugh. I'll ge it all in one bag. No problem. I've told people I'd bring them stuff back, so I guess I need to find a cheap canvas bag I can throw in there to bring back with me as a carry on.
Moiraine, what I want you to bring back are pleasant memories.

Thanks TM. I'm going to check in with the airline tomorrow and fly out early Saturday morning. I'll have to be there around 4:30 or 5:00am. At this point I'll be happy to get on the ship.
Moiraine, this thread is going to be very lonely without you.

Moiraine - have a great cruise. We'll reconnect when I get back. Aren't you glad you are heading to South Florida.
TM - we'll have to hold down the fort. Maybe Katlady and others will stop by

We will. I hope that Katlady does post. We need some help.
I hope that CQ is OK. Sandy took a big swipe at New Jersey.

I'm happy for moiraine, she sure deserves to go and have some fun.
It's a nice sunny day here ( as usual ), and there is not much on our schedule for today.

Not sure exactly where in Jersey CQ lives but I remember she expected to be without power for several days.
TM - have you heard from Lakers Fan? I saw his wife wanted to ride out the storm. Are they okay?
The DS seems be be operating as normal in Brooklyn. I know he was working Wednesday night. Not sure if they were open Tuesday.

I have called his landline and his cell phone. The answering machine came on and I left messages.
I hope that they are OK.

His house has no power, but they did not get much water damage. Many of his neighbors houses are flooded.

I'm here I glad to here Lakers fan and CQ are okay I was worried about them with Hurricane Sandy in the area. That was a crazy storm. I'm so lucky to live in California were we don't get storms like that here. Cause wow that was scary.
Moiraine started her cruise today. So we are in Virtual land. Tomorrow we board our ship. I hope everyone had a great day. Stay safe.

Welcome to Standard Time. We have frost on the ground in a big way this morning - at least I was able to see it.
The virtual is starting with a bang but I expect Moiraine took a larger airplane to Miami.
