    Well, she has been missed already. I'm embarrassed by how much we rely on her....Thanks, Colleen!!!!

    You got a real smirk on that face of yours ya know that? ;)
    jhharlan

    Yep, I know it... I WAS smirking....

    Please tell her we miss her and hope she is alright. There were 820 000 without power in CT., Connecticut, New Jersey, Massachusets and parts of New York have been declared a state of Emergency.The record snow fall was in Jaffry, NH. with 31.2 inches of snow.

    They've been showing scenes of this storm on CNN....unbelievable and way too early in the season for all that!!
    TSC

    All those trees with the majority of their leaves still on couldn't handle the weight of all that snow. A real mess up there. I left NJ to get away from that crap. Now I have Hurricanes to worry about. :(

    I hope its not a sign for whats to come this winter. I rather deal with snow than a hurricane. Connecticut had a record snow fall last winter too. That is very unusual.

    I am missing you already XXOO

    the fire company came through and cut her phone line and cable to her house because it was hanging no phone just her cell

    Aww, thanks CB. I thought about you all everyday hoping all was well with everyone. I had some cold boring days and nights. I don't think I've read so much in 20 years, lol.

    I am glad you are back. One of my sons just got his back yesterday too. He had to rent a Generator. He said many trees from his neighbors yard came down over in his yard. He had to do alot of cleaning up. Thank god it started to warm up. What a nightmare. How did you manage with all the dogs and birds? Connecticut had more snow last winter than we did in New Hampshire. That is not normal.

    All my best to your son. Does he have power yet? Yes, CT seems to have gotten the worst of the storm. I think it's time to move. It's still a mess here and some are still without power. It will be a few weeks I guess before all the downed tress and limbs are cleared away.
    Ann

    I talked with my son today. He had power yesterday afternoon and its out again. What a mess. I am glad you are alright. Connecticut is going to the dogs lately and not just weatherwise. My son has been with United Technologies for 21 years(It used to be Pratt & Whitney). , so he has no choice but to stay.

    We were told to expect intermittent outages as the turned power off to connect power to other streets, so far no outages. My grandfather worked for Pratt for about 40 years. The one he worked at closed 5 years ago. CT is fast becoming too expensive of a state to live in, just another reason for me to sell and move.

    Welcome back, Colleen. Now you have 9 people who missed you.

    My area of the state got about a foot of snow but most of that is gone now. Some towns got 2 feet or more. Crazy storm. The days have been warm so the snow melted quickly. We just have the patches now where the snow banks were. Now it's just pules apon pules apon piles of limbs, branches and cut up tress.
    melandrupert

    Colleen 2ft of snow Wow thats what I called snow fall!!! ah those poor trees at leat you will be able to use them as fire wood and they will grow twice as strong next year xxx

    That's it? Only 8 or so people missed me? : (

    I missed everyone. You are not suspended again but you have been walking a thin line I see ;) Yes, it got cold here at night. The days weren't bad though as temps got into the high 50's, low 60's. Boredom was harder than the cold though. I did a lot of reading, that's all I could do.
