I had the worst day yesterday..... email this discussion to a friend?

I was only able to make a few discussions in the morning when the power went off at around 8:00. As usual. We in this small city of ours usually experience at least once a week of brown-out (black-out for you). This usually happens every Sunday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. However, yesterday's brown-out was the worst because we waited until 5:00 to have the power back but nothing happened. The whole city was suffering from the heat and all---no internet, no TV. We waited and waited hoping that the electricity would finally come back in the evening. But guess what? The whole evening we had to sleep without electricity, and that means no electric fans or air-con for others, no internet, no nothing. It was like living in a cave. There was total darkness and extreme heat. OMG!

Guess what? It's almost 11:00 in the morning, and the power isn't back yet. As usual, Noreco II, our power-provider, is saying that they are doing some restorations and upkeep. Oh, boy. Talk about good service.

Do you also encounter this in your city? You might be wondering why I am able to do this discussion. Well, I chanced upon one internet cafe that has a generator and so here I am. As I write right now, everybody seems to be huddled in this net cafe with only small fans to provide little comfort to the users.

How about you? Did you have a perfect day?

Every day is perfect, but you are not perfect. You should try to get as much enjoyment out of the day as you can. If the power is out, focus on doing the things that don't require power. Sometimes modern conveniences are distractions.

I'm so sorry you had a horrible day! Our power rarely goes out--if our power companies did like yours, the government would come down on them so hard they wouldn't know what hit them. I can't believe anyone would put up with having a whole day of power outages every week! You pay them good money for that power, you should tell them to shape up.

I had a good day yesterday although it was very hot for this time of year. I planted some flowers that I bought and today I'll finish the job. I had a good day on myLot and generally just took the day off and frittered away my time! lol

I hope your power goes back on, it's so miserable when it's hot and you can do nothing to cool yourself off. sad

Take it easy, my friend. I remember such similar things ofen happend when I was a young boy. I didn't regard it as the end of the world. I think it gave you a chance to do something you seldom do recently. To recall your childhood, your schooldays and your first love. Isn't it a wonderful thing?

It is really awful when power lines are interrupted. I'm lucky that it had been long ago since the last time a black out occurred in my place. Well it is another day so don't think about yesterday. Maybe you could start mylotting early so you could avoid being interrupted by the black out in your area.
