12 long, long days since Hurricane Sandy swept down upon us here in the North East. I'm from LI, NY not far from the city, and documented the storm as things started progressing from my home and backyard. Once it got too late and dark there wasn't much to see, but this is a long video long of how things were over here, and the outcome in our neighborhood. 

We fortunately, did not get hit hard by flooding because we are not on the water or very near to it, however, we know several people who have lost homes or have extensive damage due to flooding. It was a lot worse than I could have predicted, and I could see from day 1. We are still ot yet allowed to travel into those certain areas, and have no phone lines to reach some loved ones.

The photos are from my surrounding blocks, and the gas situation shown in the video has just gotten worse, not better over time. It's really scarey.

Many people in our town regained power days ago, while here we still sit in the dark. It's been a freezing, living nightmare, but we are fortunate to have the roof over our heads. Some people do not.

I haven't been able to see the news, or get online except for a quick trip to the library like right now. People are fighting like cats and dogs over gas, and were over batteries and ice is still impossible to find. Praying we get out power and internet back very quick. It's been 12 days of torture.

Thanks for watching. Pardon a few curses. I never said we were perfect, lol. Right now I have zero respect for Lipa...go and help people. There are elderly, sick, and babies out there suffering while you slack off on the job. I have seen THAT first hand and it makes me sad and sick.

Be back soon..I pray.
