That was a crazy storm!!! Monday wasn't bad with the rain as predicted, but the wind was pretty bad. J and I didn't think Sandy was going to bring the punch we thought it would. Well we were wrong... Monday we both went into work and Amaya went to daycare. We figured we'd play it by ear as best as we could since they predicted by evening we'd get hit. Well I got sent home at 11:30 and J wasn't to far behind me. The winds slowly picked up but nothing we haven't seen before. We thought nothing of it. We then lost power at 10:00 pm Monday night and didn't get it back until last night. Tuesday we definitely roughed it. We made coffee and speghettios on the grill. For dinner we went out and got a pizza. We kept calling our electric company for updates and kept getting pushed back hours until we got power.
Amaya did really well. I thought she'd have a fit. She loved it!! We have a fireplace and that was all she can keep her eyes on. She also found her shadow and tried to play with it. The only time she really cried was Tuesday morning because she was cold. So i got her and brought her into bed with us to keep her warm.
Thankfully the power came on because there are a few sections in our place that won't get power back until this weekend or next week. My parents also lost the shingles off their roof causing a mess in their home. Hopefully they get that fixed soon. We're suppose to get a nor'easter next week.
Here is a picture of Amaya during our power outage.
