If things have seemed quiet here on Mommy Ramblings, there is good reason why. We are just emerging from nearly a week of having no power, no internet and no cable<\/strong>. That means we had no heat and it is cold here in New York!\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

We do have a generator but it was giving us issues causing us to rely on just our wood burning fireplace for warmth for almost 5 days before we got it up and running. Let’s just say, it was no indoor camping trip!\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

I have so much work to catch up on and lost a week of income with my other job that requires me to work online<\/strong>. More than an inconvenience it causes financial hardship for so many that work from home.<\/strong> Many people do not understand that aspect of it.<\/p>\n

My Cardinal landed on my porch railing right when the electric came back on. Then he sat for a while in one of the bushes out in front.<\/p><\/div>\n

However, nothing much can be done about that but to move forward. I feel a great deal of pressure to make up all the missed work and deadlines. I am going to do the best that I can and try to hope that is enough.<\/p>\n

Thank you all for your patience\u00a0. Let me tell you, I cannot wait for spring!!!<\/strong><\/p>\n
