Wow, hang in there, Anne. Just how bad it all is is in no small part affected by your attitude. You really are an inspiration. I am sure that I would be much more angry/aggravated/depressed than you are!
My brothers on LI had 2 very different exeriences, one lost his power for 18 hours in total and had no damage, the other one who is maybe 1/2 mile closer to the water just got his power back yesterday!! I will be in a mid town hotel for Christmas Eve and travelling to LI for Christmas Day, hoping all is well by then. The storms are just unrelenting this year. My thoughts and prayers are with everyone impacted by this terrible weather.
