Also many with major damage to their house, and some with no house left, so yah, it is best to look at the positives, and realize that for many of us, this storm has had it's costs.... (for us, luckily no real damage except to a few wonderful loaded fruit branches, but we have incurred expenses in helping others, really hate to see next months electrical with supplying ice blocks & showers... and DH used precious vacation time to ferry ice and water and supplies, rather than working on our home renovation... but we do feel blessed, that we had had the time set aside & that we could help others)
On the plus side, if your contract and closing date do get pushed back, so are your payments...so in the long run...it is more of a wash in expenses... luckily, there seems to be no real damage to the house (hopefully...as right now you do not know if the electrical system took a hit from the live wire down...)
