Just wanted to let people know, if they were inclined towards caring :lol:, that we are still without power after Thursday night's ice storm. Our car was taken out by a falling branch (smashed the back window and put a serious dent in the roof, as well as minor dents all over the car), and our house's power lines were ripped completely out of the house (the meter is lying on the ground...). I took pictures, but can't really post them today. I'm logged in now on David's computer at work. It's cold at home :lol: Our awesome next-door neighbor has just had a permanent generator installed, so has been loaning out his portable one around the neighborhood, so we've had heat over the last couple of nights, at least for a few hours. Might get cold tonight, though, if we don't have a turn with the generator. Luckily, we're very close to UNH (which does have full power) so if it gets really bad, we can shower here; we have water (though cold) at home, and lots of blankets, so we're surviving. It could have been a lot worse. We are looking at Tuesday, and maybe Wednesday, for having our power restored, though, so I probably won't be getting online more than once every couple of days.

Hope my other New England friends are coping, and that most have electricity by now!
