What a lovely, DARK evening.

So, I was sitting here on the laptop and all of a sudden I hear "BOOM, CRACK, CRASH" and our electricity went off. My heart dropped to my stomach cause I thought Lance had gotten hurt or something.

I looked out the window and noticed that half of the telephone poll at the end of our driveway was dangling. NIIIIIIIIICE.

A tree fell from my neighbors yard across the street, hit the power lines, broke the telephone poll in half and snatched the service off the side of our house. ARGH!

I bet you're wondering how I'm on the internet. We have a generator. It's only good enough to run small things though. So I have lights and the internet. HA.

I HOPE & PRAY they get our electricity going before the night is out. Preferably before AI comes on. LOL!

7 folks had something to say.:

I dont like being in the dark like that when the power goes off,i seem to want to panic as i am running around trying to get candles lit.
