Good Monday afternoon to all. 9AM today, there was an unexpected power interruption. Again, the employees of the electrical cooperative here in our city, immediately hung their landline phones so we could not get information if the brownout will last for several hours or days. I had my PTPA examination this afternoon and as i expected, it is within my normal range. We just arrived home with my son. Power was back at exactly 5PM. It is so annoying to not receive information of power interruption. Everything changes, including the attitude of people. Ask me not about my sister, because she really has the "attitude".

Hello hija. I ignored her attitude and lived as if I and my son were only the ones living at home.

Yes. Schedules have to be altered because it was hot due to no power. Supposed to be, I should go to the hospital at 3 to 4pm. Instead I and my son went to the city at 2PM after we were done with our household tasks.

At least your power was on when you returned home. I wouldn't be able to live like that. Glad your exam went well. I will NOT ask about your sister. Lol!

we have dealt with no power for nearly 2 months last September 2016. the problem yesterday was, the power outage was not scheduled.

I'm sorry you had an unexpected interruption. I'm glad it's back on. Sorry your sister has an 'attitude'.
