I hope they catch them too. My friend just called me again and said they
found another suspicious explosive. On 27th St. Why they're targeting this
particular neighborhood I have no idea but as I'm dictating this I can hear
helicopters all over the place. There's a heliport not that far from here and
I think there's tons of helicopters going over toward the west side. I really
don't know how much sleep I'm going to get tonight early. I'll try to sleep
it let's see. I didn't get a notification on my phone. Because he was we all
got an emergency alert if something happened but I didn't get one. So
basically that's the way that goes. I wish I could get an a.m. station over
here good enough so I could listen to the news. But unfortunately I can't. As
I said I'm still hearing helicopters. It sounds like there's one hovering
over here not that far from here. But I can definitely hear it it might be a
traffic one or a police one. But then I'll tell you this is just totally
crazy. The whole neighborhood where my building is is all blocked off. Subway
services all is stop buses are stopped in everything and people that were in
the neighborhood are going to be stuck there for quite a while. And the
windows in my apartment building some of them were blown out the ones that
are facing the street. I'm lucky because my apartment is in the back and it's
not facing the street so hopefully nothing got damaged. But my landlord is
not going to be happy vigorously done all this work and now they're going to
have to fix it. And that's going to cost them a ton of money

Hi, Kathleen,
Wow, that's awful about the pipe bomb. I hope whoever did it gets caught.

Well my homecare worker won't drive me and I'll be the moving company
probably. And I may end up staying here a little bit longer. I don't know
if you're following what I posted but somebody put a pipe bomb in a
dumpster right outside my building and the bomb went off in a blue alibis
your windows injuring 25 people. People aren't allowed in or out of the
neighborhood so who knows. So I may be stuck here longer but I'll know that
on Monday. So basically I don't know if this is a terrorist attack or what.
But there was a few other bomb that one off another states. One in Jersey
City which is right across the river and one in Virginia. So who knows. I
think the one in Jersey was it a military event. The one in Virginia I'm
not sure. I haven't checked Facebook to find out that my friend Louis and
my friend Debbie called me. My friend Debbie is in the building and she's
fine. They're not a vacuum waiting the building so at least that's
one good sign I guess.

Kathleen,
If home isn’t far from the place you are living in now, I would think your
frozen food should be okay especially if your home care worker drives you
from the place you are in now back to your apartment. Just have them put
it in a garbage bag and take them to the apartment. Hope it works out for
you.

Sorry my other message cut off and I didn't mean it to. But anyway maybe
I'll get DSL I don't know. But I'm still kind of worried about the frozen
food issue when I move out of here. I just hope I can finish it. As I said
before I don't have a cooler or anything. And I guess maybe I shouldn't of
done a big shopping but I did anyway. Oh well. But as I said before I'll
sure be glad to go home. I'll tell you more about what the apartment is
going to be like when I get home and I see it from A sighted person's
point of you too. I may have somebody describe it to me. I think I had one
described by a friend of mine who has some site. He said it was pretty
nice. He said they made the kitchen a little bit bigger but it took a
little bit from the living room. So that's basically the way that goes. I
had my home care worker go through my mail and like transit card wasn't in
there so I guess it's still in the mailbox. Oh well I can just stay there
till I go back because I'm not making another trip over there

I have DSL and a router which gets Wy-Fi. Now, see, I know as little
about the makings of it as a non-computer user! Thanks for enlightening

Linda, I don’t think you can use the IPhone with a cable modem. You have
to have a network plug to plug into the cable modem and your computer. I
never heard of a network cable for an IPhone. Therefore, you have to have
a Wi-Fi system, either through neighboring towers, like Kathleen runs when
she is at home, or through a router which is attached to a cable modem.

No I don't have Wi-Fi through panics. I'm only using my cellular data. And
sometimes it doesn't work very well in this building. When I get home
it'll work a lot better. Because I'm closer to the towers. And I'll sure
be glad to go home yes I will. Anyway I have Time Warner about Wi-Fi when
they came here. And the guy didn't have a router with
him. So that's basically how that went.
