Had a rough night

My bedroom a/c is plugged into a power strip, along with my clock, lamp and fan.
I heard it go off at 2:10 or so. I am not sure why. I checked for a flipped breaker, and to see if it was unplugged. Neither one had happened. It was the power strip being over taxed.
I hit the reset on the power strip, and all worked well but I was anxious and sat up for a couple of hours. I ate a bowl of cereal, and went back to bed.
Since I have been up I have done a lot of things, including mopping both sides of the kitchen and the pantry.
I made pancakes for Bob and I.
I have a grounded plug for the bedroom a/c and will go take care of that next, along with the possibility of a nap.
Hope you are having a good Monday, last day of the month.

Maybe you should plug the AC directly into a wall socket. Enjoy your day.

That's rough. Good to know those power strips work.

Waking up to your power strip flipping off isn't fun. At least it was only the power strip and not a power outage. Hope you can catch up on some sleep with a nice nap today
