I just wish I had better radio reception. I know I have tuna in radio and I
could probably search for WYNS but whether they would it would come in I don't
know. Because sometimes when you dictate a search it doesn't work very well.
But I didn't get an emergency alert on my cell phone which is really weird.
Because you would think that I would. But no notification came in and that's
strange.

Hi, Kathleen,
This is beginning to sound more and more like a terrorist attack. I don't
blame you for not being able to go to sleep.

Well they'll find out soon enough. We have a good police force it does a lot
of good investigating work and they'll get to the bottom of it. But as I
said in the message I just sent I can hear tons of helicopters. Just
hovering over here. In this neighborhood. And it's all over the news even
the national news. This is really crazy. And reporters and everybody is all
over my neighborhood and nobody can go in or out once you're in there you're
in and that's it. The cops are keeping a close eye on everything. But I'll
tell you one thing if I had been home and I probably would've jumped clear
out of my skin if I would've heard that. Oh man that would've been crazy.
But I'll tell you what my friend in New Jersey said he can't sleep either.
And apparently a bond was set off in Jersey City and that's not far from
him. So this is really crazy. This whole thing is really really weird. But
yes it could be a disgruntled construction worker or something and I hope
they get to the bottom of it and catch up

Hi, Kathleen,
Maybe your facebook page will have some information about what happened.
It's possible it could have been a disgruntaled worker who didn't get paid
so he'staking it out on everyone in your building.

Yes that is the building where I live. It's not a rehabilitation center
it's an apartment building. People of called it a home for the blind a
nursing home and everything that it isn't. But yes that's my building. A
lot of people are scared to death in there and you can't blame them. I
mean you're sitting there watching TV or doing what you normally do and
all of a sudden you hear something that sounds like thunder. From what I
understand people could feel the explosion all the way to 10th Ave. one
that's three blocks away. And they're not short blocks either. So I guess
I've got 14 days worth of frozen food to finish and I may be there longer
but I'm going to find that out on Monday. I'll call the
relocation specialist and ask them what the deal is. I have a weird
feeling about this. I wonder if it's a disgruntled construction worker
that didn't get paid for a while. I don't know if it's terrorism I have no
idea it could be tight but who knows. I can't really get a lot of
information because I can't listen to the all new station because a you
A.m. radio will not work in this building. I mean I could probably search
for WYNS on iTunes but it would take me a while to find it. Especially
with the ability to dictate in here sometimes it doesn't work. So if
anybody can send me any more information from time to time I would really
appreciate it because I really feel isolated and I want to know what's
going on. I'll have to see if anything is on my Facebook page.

Yes, I did watch the news and saw that New York had this explosion. They
said it was near a rehabilitation center for the blind and I wondered if
it wasn’t the building you lived in Kathleen. I had dinner and then came
on here to inquire whether it was the place you lived. One of the
witnesses they interviewed was named Deborah. Wonder if it’s your
friend. She was OK, but now the number is 25 people who have been hurt,
but not seriously. Thank God for that. Glass was broken out of several
buildings around that area at 23rd and 6th avenue. Thanks for telling us
it is your building and thank God you are not anywhere near. They said
on Fox News that people could feel the shaking as far as 29th and 7th.
So, it seems to be a little more than what some authorities are saying is
construction items being thrown into the dumpster. There was another
explosion in a dumpster in New Jersey, Jersey City, I believe was the
exact place at an area where a Marine 5k race was taking place. So, if
there’s another one in Virginia, sounds really suspicious to me.
Wondering where they’ll attack next. Usually groups don’t take
responsibility for these kinds of things until all the damage is done.
Anyway, glad you’re OK. Yeah, you may have to stay there longer until
they can check the building’s stability and all the windows. Take care.

I don't know if any if you were following the news on this list. I hope
that you are. About 830 tonight a bomb went off right outside Seles
manner the building that I live in. 14 people were injured from what I
was heard and the dumpster was used as a weapon. Police and fire and
everybody else is all over the place. Nobody is allowed in and out of the
neighborhood. Why would somebody want to set off a pipe bomb in front of
a building for the blind? This just doesn't make any kind of sense and I
was supposed to move back on the second. I wonder how that's going to
change. I guess I'll find out on Monday. I'll have to go on Facebook and
see if anything is on there. Is this is just really crazy. And then I
guess a few hours later somebody set off the same type a bomb in
Virginia. So it wasn't used in New York. Since I don't have a.m.
reception I can't listen to the local news. So this is really crazy. But
I didn't mean to disrupt the happiness of The list I thought you guys
should know.
I'm OK I'm over in Stuyvesant town and I wanted to let you know that.
My friend Debbie is OK and from what I understand my other friends are OK
to even though I haven't heard from them. But I heard that bomb created a
huge mess. Windows that were just put in to newly renovated apartments
from what I understand were blown out. Oh boy what a mess. I have a
feeling I may be spending more time over here than I thought. OMG I knew
something was going to happen
