Staying #JerseyStrong

Caroline shares her experience with Hurricane Sandy.

By Caroline Manzo

Hello again!  Can you believe we are on Season 5?  They say time flies when you're having fun.... we are having fun, right?

I'm glad we were able to feature a bit of Hurricane Sandy.  I was lucky, we only lost power for 12 days, but fortunately we have a back up generator so our house was the safe house where family and friends hunkered down for nearly two weeks.

How to Watch

Watch The Real Housewives of New Jersey on Peacock and the Bravo app.  

Devastation of Hurricane Sandy
During that time we were proactive in helping those who weren't as fortunate. It was horrifying to see the devastation first hand in New York and New Jersey, but it was also wonderful to witness how everyone came together to help each other through the tough times. Fast forward eight months and people are rebuilding their homes and businesses slowly but surely and the Jersey Shore is fighting its way back as only N.J. can do!  #jerseystrong!  

I would be remiss if I didn't mention our friends in Oklahoma and surrounding areas that have endured such devastation and tragedy over the past couple of weeks.  Our thoughts are with you all. xoxoxo

This week’s episode was more a less a recap of where we left off in Season 4. Although the issues still remain, there is definitely a shift in the air for Season 5!  I for one look forward to it.  It's been one hell of a crazy ride and time to make some changes. Without getting into it too much, I can tell you that there are some really amazing moments this year that will probably leave you speechless and in tears, this I know for sure.That's all I'm going to say for now, we've got a long season ahead of us and in true Jersey style we bring it to your television screens in a big way.  I'll be watching along with you guys with my fingers crossed, hoping for the best!

Thanks so much for watching, welcome back! xoxoxo
