I'm here. No power outages. Obsessing like crazy as this should be the week for AF and I'm hoping that she doesn't show.

I live in CA so we had power. I feel bad for all those who didn't! I'm just hanging out in the 1ww, hoping that my flatline temps mean good things. Good luck to all!

Tara here-with power BACK! Geez I can't beleive that I'm the only one here so far that lost their power!!!! Maybe all the other power outage victims aren't back on line yet??? We were out only for about 12 hours- the gas shortage repurcussions are ongoing however. I waited in line at my 6th gas station for over and hour on Friday- I was sure I was going to run dry in line! All the stations were either still without power or had empty tanks. Other than that we just had a nice quiet candle-lit evening Thurs-kinda nice actually ;0)

Good Afternoon, Kathy here.

We live in Northern/Central NJ, we lost power for a whopping 10 seconds. My family on Long Island were out until 10:00 AM Friday.

Good News is the company I work for has it's e-mail servers in NYC so we had no e-mail all day :):)

Tara- I'm glad you made the most of the inconvenience, and ended the day with a candle-lit evening with dh! Standing in line for an hour at your 6th gas station? You are a good sport!

I was at work at the airport here in California when a customer asked if I had heard about the outage- it really kind of frightened me! Thank God things are up and running again! Everyone make it a great week! Anne ttc#1, cd13

Hi... I am from NY and we had no power from 4:11pm on Thursday until approximately 8:30 on Friday morning. Working in NYC, it was really scary when we first lost power...we had no idea what was going on. We did had phone service so we were able to find out that much of the state was pretty much in the same situation. Normally I take Metro-North to Westchester County, but since there was no power that was not an option. I tried to take the express bus home, but all the buses that passed were extremely full. My normal commute of 40 minutes turned into 8 hours...ugh! Once night started to fall I was getting worried...it was so dark in NYC and not all cell phones were working. I finally meet my sister's fiance in Mid-town Manhattan at around 9pm and we headed over to the 59th Street bridge. We meet my sister and mother at the NYC side of the base of the 59th Street bridge and all 4 of us walked over the bridge into Queens where my sister had parked her car...we finally reached my parents house in Queens at 12:30am. DH and my dad were waiting for us when we got home. NYC can be really scary in the dark.
