Surge, fire, hurricane and scream were New York City for me last week. Scream is on display at MOMA and MOMA was where I went everyday to get warm and use a bathroom. Monday, October 31, the lights went out. When I lose power I also lose water and an elevator. When you live on the 18th floor that's not good. I had some supplies so I was okay. However, my flashlight batteries didn't last. They may have been in the flashlight for a decade or more. So, I decided on Wednesday to do the stairs. It wasn't bad. I can do 5 flights before my head bursts and then I would just sit and catch my breath and do a few more flights. The power came back on Friday about 5:30 PM. Things are back to normal, for me. I lost a couple of pounds because I was climbing 18 flights of stairs and I wasn't noshing in front of the TV. So there is some good in the worst of times. I hope the rest of those who have suffered through this storm and are still suffering can find some relief and some good.
