So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

Hopefully Sandy Won't Flood Your Long Island Basement

By Kyle Piraino


If you are dealing with the hurricane at the moment like most people in the Northeast are, there are a few things that must be done in order to ensure that you stay safe. Preparation is key, and there are a wide variety of things that must be prepared for. Flooding is a big part of the storm, so you may need to get your Long Island basement redone when the storm has passed by.

The best way to prepare for the hurricane is to stock up ahead of time on the essentials. That mostly means picking up batteries of all kinds, different foods that won't spoil, and candles upon candles. Flooding cannot really be avoided so hopefully you will not have to refinish your basement because of it, but other things can be prepared for.

One of the most underrated things that can be done when in the midst of a hurricane is having entertainment. Everyone always buys water and batteries, but having something to do when the power inevitably goes out could be the difference between dealing with the hurricane and wanting to jump out into it so you don't die of boredom first.

Recently, the emergency system has been calling residents in homes that are on the water's edge to give a mandatory evacuation broadcast. A lot of people have ignored the warnings and decided to just bunker down and live through it. Hopefully those with basements in Long Island will not have them be completely flooded like mine does occasionally.

If you are dealing with the hurricane, make sure to stay safe. No need to put yourself in an unnecessarily dangerous situation if you can avoid it. If you are on Long Island during this time, stay inside and stay safe.
