So Cold.

It has been raining non-stop for 17 hours here. For 9 hours, the electricity was off. As I watch the news, my area is still placed on signal number 3. It is good that it is cold and there was no need for fan when the power came off. We just stay at our long seating area in our living room. My kids sleep there while the French doors at the lanai were open. I opened all the doors except for the screen doors so the wind will flow inside the house. I am grateful that we do not have flood here. Some areas are now flooded and some needed to be rescued. I hope you are all doing good and safe wherever you are.

@cherigucchi true. Sometimes I do not want to watch news. I remember Ondoy when I need to go to office because most of my officemate were living in Marikina/Cainta area. I have to do all the checks needed to be able to pay and buy stuff needed at the office. We also try to check all the staff living in the area

that is true. I heard from the news that there were a lot of people stranded and stayed on some sidewalks

That's a long time raining but it's good you aren't flooded. We've been grey and cloudy for days but only a little rain mixed with a little sunshine. Hope things return to normal for you soon.
