Hi!!!!!!!!!!
We're fine.
The one thing that I did not have a backup/contingency plan for is the one thing that happened.
My phones went out....................no phone no puter
So I hunkered down to channel surf the news programs and 15 minutes later the cable went out
I have been news deprived since 3:30 yesterday afternoon.
At 10 this morning both my phones and cable came back on.
Soon as I got the puter fired up I came straight here!!!!!!!!
Judging from my "my comments page" and my FReepmail inbox - I've got a lot of catching up to do.

Lots of folks relieved to hear from you. Glad you are safe, and in good spirits!

Glad you survived okay. I've been lurking on these threads and was concerned about you.
Northern Virginia is under a 'boil water alert' and many homes there are without power, including Angelwood.
tgslTakoma in Maryland, just outside of D.C. had a tree hit her home and car and is also without power.
As for me in downtown D.C., I've got power, water and phone. I spent yesterday moving things away from the large windows in my 8th floor apartment just in case the wind blew them out.

That would not be fun. Glad to hear that everything is back up and running and good to hear that you're okay, Gabz.
