I always felt that the remnants of Ida were going to make up here,and although,it not going to be a huge impact,its still going to have some heavy rains and gusty winds Friday night and Saturday. The worst will be the cape and the islands and SE Mass and RI.
When a system hangs around off the coast,of the Carolinas,most times it will make it north, and thats what has happened.The high that was protecting is moving into the Maritimes and open the door for the moisture to move north.It certainly has been more typical November weather with temps in the low 50's and cool NE breeze.
Weather looks to improve as Sunday progresses and early next week looks nice.

Heard from other meterological sources that we'll be having windswept rain (up to 2") most of Saturday and finally ending mid Sunday. Hopefully, most of the remnants of IDA don't do too much harm to the main and coastal regions of Mass.
Hope your wife is holding her own today after yesterday's treatment. Continued best wishes to her for finding the strength to endure it all.
I'm so stressed right now,I don't know whether Im coming of going,between the job,and dealing with issues trying to sell my dad's place in New Hampshire.AAAAAARRRRGGGHHHHHH!!!!
Ok, I feel better now.LOL,I'm still trying to stay positive,somehow.
As far as your Dad's house is concerned, is it a question of needing to sell it immediately due to the high property taxes in NH?
Is there a trustworthy family member who could assist or unburden you in this particular matter?
My brother and sister want it sold right away,and I'm letting my brother do most of the negotiations,but he's in St. Croix and my sister is in Florida.We have a buyer,but theres been complications. I really didn't want to sell it for the proposed price,worth more than that,but at this point,I just want to get it done,and get what we can.
As for my wife,it's good that she got 4 full strength treatments in here,and one of lesser strength,which may be enough,as the doctor said there are not studies to show 6 is better than 4 at this point.I have a new found admiration for my wife,and what she has gone through.
As far as the property,just want it to go away.So at this point don't care about any loss on it.Given the economy and the very slow improvement,who knows when the market will open up.

Glad to know, too, that your Sheltie, Prince, is home supplying his form of protection and love to your wife while you're at work and when you get home. Dogs are truly not only man's best friend but all genders!
Anytime, you want to vent feel free. Granted, it's hard sometimes not actually knowing someone personally or their circumstances, but have found in these past few months, how the comraderie insight and support of certain bloggers really does help during trying times.
HOPE YOU AND YOURS ARE ABLE TO HAVE A DECENT EVENING!
