Happy Halloween!
Unfortunately it doesn't feel so much like Halloween here in New York due to Hurricane Sandy. Haven't spotted any young trick-or-treaters, and have to yet to hear the doorbell ring. This year will surely be a quiet Halloween, but at least there's a general consensus to postpone it. It's better to play it safe for the kids.
My family was truly lucky to have made it through the whole storm without losing power. Also being that my town is in the middle of Long Island, we didn't suffer from any flooding and whatnot. Although, waking up the morning after to watch all news reports and updates of the damage Sandy left behind was heartbreaking. I've never seen New York and New Jersey in this condition, ever. It's going to take quite a while for the Tri-state area to get back on its feet, but I know we can do it. My heart truly goes out to everyone who had suffered from this storm.
That being said, we shouldn't let Sandy suck all the fun out of our Halloween this year.
I put together a fun little playlist of songs to get me through Halloween '12. I hope you enjoy it!
