My city is getting soaked by the Henri storm. I am safe and at home, and simply because I'm not able to go out, wanting to do it very badly. It's been a weekend of sitting by my window and watching the rain fall in droves, and wondering would it be so bad really if I made a dash for the store up the block?

(The answer being: yes. I am dry, and outside is most definitely not.)

The big problem is house-internet is out so I only have my cell phone . I do most of my interneting off my laptop, and it is driving me crazy just now. Still: I am safe. I am dry. I have no real shortage of food or water or other necessities. I am fine, even if I have to keep reminding myself.

Hope the rest of you are safe and dry, and only minimally inconvenienced by it all.

I hear you, as it's still raining and raining here. Thankfully, it eased briefly yesterday so I could dash out for groceries. But I haven't been courageous enough to check how wet and soggy the crawlspace under the house is, which had finally dried out a few weeks ago, but I really need to check. The sump pump is working overtime.

I sure hope we're all able to dry out soon, this summer has been too hot, too humid, too wet, and too long.

I hope you get your internet back soon! I live on my laptop as well.

Thanks for checking in. I've been worried about all of my East Coast friends. Stay safe!

I'm glad you're not being too adversely affected by Henri. Hopefully it will soon be out of your hair and you can get out and about (and get your Internet back).

I have one friend I'm keeping track of who went to the New Hampshire shore this weekend... the storm is forecast to track right across there, so I'm hoping by then it will have weakened so there's not a lot of flooding or strong winds.

Stay dry!
