Quick update on Sandy from NJ

Just a quick update from our place in South Jersey on Hurricane Sandy.  We are fine.  We are surprised we still have power -- but the lights have been flickering all day.

It's been a very windy and very rainy day.   We finally got a proper potty break at 8pm tonight when the rain finally let down.   Earlier in the day, Mommy kept trying to get us to go potty in the yard -- we were able to take quick pee breaks outside butt got soaked.  It was no fun -- trust us!   So, we were so happy at 8pm to get outside when the wind let down a bit and the rain wasn't pounding as hard as before.


Right now there is a bit of a calm spot.  But the news on TV says we should be getting bad wind until 6 am or something like that.  Maybe this is the eye of the storm or something.

Anyway, Mommy is so nervous with this Hurricane.  She still hasn't gotten over that tree branch falling down weeks ago that almost hit her, butt hit the car instead.  So, she is terrified looking out the window at neighbors trees swaying in the wind. 

Guess in time, Mommy will get over her fear of trees.   We still have some trees in our back yard, but they provide shade.   Hopefully Mommy will get over her fear of trees soon before she gets all the trees in the back yard cut down just like she got all the trees out front cut down earlier this month. 

Stay safe everyone.

P.S.  Grandma wanted Mommy to post a picture of how she prepared for the storm.  Grandma got herself a big bottle of Prune Juice.   Mommy was supposed to post the picture -- butt she didn't.  Sorry Grandma!  Grandma thought everyone would get a big kick out of her Prune Juice preparation for the storm.
