Power Restored

For those that saw my last two discussions, power finally was restored. They got it back on just a few minutes before midnight. It was off when we got home around 7 PM, so that was quite a long time. They ended up having to dig underground and take out the old wires, replace them, and all of that. Was so nice to have it back, even though it was so late.

I know how you feel since being inside of a home without electricity is bad news.

Hurray! These power companies fail to maintain wiring. No excuse for this. So cheap.

Just seemed very random for it to happen, but I guess it's bound to eventually
