There are still loads of people that don't have power and it's getting frustrating for them. There is just soooo much to clean up and untangling the trees from the wires takes care and time. They showed an aerial photo of Point Pleasant Park, a natural forest park at the south end of the city and it looks like someone just stepped on it. it will take a century to regrow all those trees. I do know though, that the park was infested by a longhorn beetle and a lot of the trees are very old and there were a number with those disease huge bulges so i think a lot of the trees there were probably weakened to begin with.

I'm still struggling with my back. It just seems to get to a point and not get any better and it's tiring, wearing, frustrating and discouraging.

Got home after work, after feeling frustrated and miserable about my back, but when i got off the bus it felt better for some reason. I had had a cold pack on it just before i left so that might have helped. Had a burst of energy and tossed out four bags of stuff from the fridge, freezer and what was already in the garbage bin. Then i ended up on my knees cleaning out the bottom of the fridge around the crisper drawer which i had taken out and washed as well. And i did the freezer since it was empty. That was easy, standing up straight. Yes i was careful when i did the bottom. Still need to do shelves and stuff but will give that a miss for now. And now there's a mess all over the floor so when the splatters dry up i can sweep it but it needs washing as well. Will do that on the weekend. Carefully. Have a new mop though so should be ok! Wow what a difference a couple of hours seems to have made. Problem is my back feels good for awhile then doesn't. I don't know. It drives me nuts.

Enough whining. I"m sure you're all sick of it. I know i am lol

I found another Corrie fan right in my own office! One of the men this time, he and his wife watch it. Seems this serial killer storyline is bringing them out of the woodwork and it's great! Can't talk him into coming to a ping though ! I'll work on it :D The storyline is going to peak next week so Thanksgiving Sunday is the Sunday "omnibus" showing with it all. Oooh i must get Sue's tape ready to mail too.
