Monday Morning Blues/Unhappy Halloween

Kitties, it was quite some weekend here. We were affected by the storm that came up the east coast of the US on Saturday and Saturday night. About 1 pm on Saturday, even though there was not yet a lot of snow, the weight of the snow on the leaves still on the trees started to cause branches on trees to break, and one of the first ones took out the power line on our street. The yard is littered with branches big and small, and it looks more like we had a hurricane than a little bit of snow. In fact, when Irene passed through we had MUCH less damage than this. The power is still not on. Our temperatures are going down into the 30s at night, and the house is about 50F. We are having to do lots of cuddling with Mom in the dark at night.

Mom is posting this from work for us, as we have no internet at home. Posting and visiting will be sparse till we get our electricity back, hopefully about Wednesday.

Hope lots of you are going to have a fun Halloween. Our will be the quietest one ever.

  1. oh no you poor things! I was watching the Today Show this morning and they also said what you said about the damage and power outages being worse than with Irene. Who would imagine this in OCTOBER??

    I am praying your power is restored to you soon.....get LOTS of comfort food, put on some cozy PJs and huddle in blankets....do you know anyone with a generator?

    Hope you all get as warm as possible!

  4. Oh my goodness, we're so sorry you're stuck with no power. Brrrr!!! We hope the utility company gets things back up and running today--their workers must be going round the clock.

    Take care and stay safe, please!

  5. Purrs to you--that is way too cold. I hope that your power comes back on soon. We feel badly for those poor trees who weren't ready for winter yet--and now you have to pay the price.

  23. I am so sorry your Halloween got spoiled. That you have no power. Bummer!!!! The trees losing branches and probably in some cases the whole tree is no picnic either!! One year we had a hurricane for Thanksgiving!!!
