    3. Hi everyone, I am borrowing our childrens god-parents computer so I can write everyone. We are doing well. The Lord has really taken care of us during this storm. We have no electric and we are really roughing it. They say it some ways it is worse than HUGO in 1989. We are using a Kerosene heater and a butane latern as well as a oil lamp. We have put all our frozen food in either a cooler to use up first or at our kids god parents house. They have electric. Showers sure feel good. Our neighborhood is very unsafe and their could be a potential for looting so we are going to have to get back by dark. We are living off our Y2K things and food. I helps to be well stocked. It has been fun in a way. Well gotta go. Will write back when our electric gets back on. Our cell number is: 704-777-1516. Please pray. PS: Jerilyn, Are you OK? How much snow did you get. My mom and dad got 7inches. Talk soon Love to everyone, Robin Sign up for Internet Service under $10 dollars a month, at http://isp.BlueLight.com

We are fine here in the ole hometown of Collingswood.We got 8",the kids were off from school,my husband went to Philly to work the day of the storm.No problems.Today[Saturday]we are still "digging out",but all is well. It was actually beautiful,and lent a White Chrismas air to all the holiday preparations.Neighbors were sharing snowblowers,woman were making soups and stews,and our block made it an "Event".

Showstorms were always a fun event with everyone out enjoying each others company as they worked together blowing and shoveling snow. Here people get out with the snow blower, wave, get their driveway done and that is the last you see of them. I miss that good old NJ friendliness. Judy
