Dark

September 19th, 2008 Leave a comment Go to comments

Our power’s out. It went out about 5pm. First we saw a fire truck go by. Then an ambulance. Then we heard a helicopter. At that point, we had a pretty good idea of what happened. Apparently there was a huge wreck about a mile from our house. It’s been almost five hours, and power’s still out for miles around.

I’m over at my dad’s now, about to go back home to my husband. Em’s handling the weirdness well, and I’m proud of her. Of course, when the power goes back on, she’ll wake us up immediately to fix her alarm clock so it’s not flashing the wrong time, but we’ll cross that bridge when we come to it.

Here’s hoping we can save a few things from our fridge – and that we’re not in the dark long! I’ll be b

Okay, I was just updating and then power went out here at Dad’s for a minute. Thank you, “autosave” feature on LiveJournal. So I’m not pressing my luck. Tvini out!

ETA: We’re back! Woot!

    The alarm clock

    I had to chuckle at the image of you getting up to fix the alarm clock!
    Caleb is just as quirky so I completely understand. He is completely obsessed with his new cub scout uniform right now. He keeps taking it off and putting it on. He wants to wear it for everyone. He gets upset if I don’t fold it up correctly after he takes it off. Oh the joys of PDD. Our children are so precious though. I also have that same motherly instinct. Oh by the way have you been crotcheting today! Let me know when the tapestry is done. I will buy it and claim to have crotcheted it myself!!!
