After spending hours into the evening on-line and phone and text...listening and watching as the "Frankenstorm" (...as they've called it...) made landfall...and in the midst of it all...Chuck lightening the mood posting this
noting that it "really is windy in New York"! (...which I immediately shared...) Making me laugh out loud.
And, although it is far from over for our EC Friends and family...Morning Roll Call was wonderful. Everyone ok. Things maybe be messy. Maybe underwater. Maybe trees down or power lines down. But reaching out to each other last night and this morning was amazing. The love and strength we share together! Valerie and Karl...you have a story for a lifetime now...Ann...You've survived two now!!! Gail...overwhelming urge to bake brownies...lol...Diane and Sal...loved the "Couple Shot"...you guys rock!!! Everyone else ((((HUGS))). Ralph...step away from the "brownies"...lol...
The coffee du jour...STRONG...
The overwhelming feeling of the day...gratitude.
Gratitude that everyone is okay. Grateful for being a part of such "friendships" and Circle of Caring. And grateful for the strength of our Country and its citizens...that once this is over everyone rolls up their sleeves and works together to set things right again. That is what makes this nation great. Its spirit...its people. And our small group of friends/family is a microcosm of that greatness.
Okay...sorry...starting to sound like a politician and I'm not running for anything.
Anyway, I love you all.
Till tomorrow...
