I was on here chatting when my electric "kicked" 4 times before going out at 2:20Pm. We regained power about 10:15Pm. We have a generator hooked up but it only powered the bedrooms and the bathrooms and part of the living and kitchen. No range light to cook by. I used a kerosene (coal oil what we used to call it) lamp and tried my best to cook a pot of chili since my daughter and her family who lives behind me wanted to hunker down with us. It was still like cooking in the dark. However we all had a good time. Everyone is still sleeping so I decided to get on here after cleaning the big kitchen mess so I can make pancakes, bacon and sausage when the late risers awaken.
I'm sure once the sun comes out and those limbs start popping I'll lose power again.
Sounds good. God bless you and your family. I got lucky I guess to only lose power for about 2 hours total, but I hear some friends haven’t had power all night. I hope all goes better today. I got limbs down everywhere, driveway to blocked currently. Maybe if the sun comes out it will melt off our lines and limbs. Here’s to hoping. Save safe sister.

I'm already dreading the thought of cleaning up the yard. I guess in a few days we'll all be breaking out the wheel barrows.
