Thanks guys, but im sure you all would do the same. The emotion you get for people who are just god damn cold is tear inducing. Everyone sees you and everyone begs you for help. I have so much random Boos, as gifts, I'm actually giving it out to others. It's going to get in the 30s over the weekend. I fear this as people are running their stoves, and doing other stupid shit that they are burning themselves down.

Wooohooooo. I have power. Going to doc tomorrow. Just couldn't make it. Sitting toasty right now. CEO passed out on the couch. Baby sleeping arms stretched in her bed. I finally feel relaxed tonight. Probably will manage to sleep.

Just got home after helplessly looking for fuel. Bullshit. Found one place without a $20 limit. Price is 4.60 a gal. Cash only. But here is the kicker. 5 damn hour line. Holy shit.

I am seeing the news finally. Wow, Jersey, you poor SOBs. I wish you all the best. Some of the places I see I can only imagine the craziness. But good news. Seen a whole lot of military show up.

I think one of the biggest problems now is the tranportation outlets. The traffic is brutal. I've set in about 9 hours of traffic today. Insane, and we wonder why we are running out of fuel. But I managed to scoop up 7 tanks of propane from our roofing supplier. Hell yea. I promised 5 to people that have propane generators and need to pump their houses out. The deal is they then pass the tank on. 2 are for me. I have 3 roofs to put back together already, which I try to avoid in the cold. But depends what doc says tomorrow, I might be out of commission anyway. Father in law should be back on Saturday, and I will finally get some releif. His house needs about a square of roofing replaced though first. That's 100 square feet.

I keep seeing some seriously shody construction. Some of the damage should not have happened had it been built properly. It is time for people in the Tri-state to really learn about hurricane straps. Really, sheds, sunrooms, garages, I see all this add-on bullshit fallen like a cards.

I think conditions are improving, but that could be just me, now that my family is warm.
I hope military services brought some big ass equipment. They really need to ease the traffic, get those tunnels pumped out.
