Hurricane Sandy

Finally, after about 10 days of frustration and difficulties for many people, it looks like New Jersey is finally getting back in motion. Power seems to be back in the schools and offices and the gas stations are pumping gas again, so the lines are not too long anymore.  This past week was a good opportunity to count our blessings and to recognize how the little things in life are often taken for granted.

A couple of days without heat or power or the luxuries that we are used to is nothing in comparison to the suffering that many, especially at the Jersey Shore, are going through.  The pictures show so many cars and homes literally washed away and the destruction the Hurricane caused is tough to view.

Thank God life is getting back to normal, at least a little bit and I pray that God will bless those who are still recovering and will continue to recover in the aftermath of the storm.  And hopefully, today's Nor'Easter won't be too bad, either!
