Hi all, hope you guys had a good day.
Ugh, Today feels like it lasted a week.
We lost power last night around 10:30 pm. I called the power company to report, made sure all the light switches were off and went to bed thinking it would be back on in the morning. The Milk drinker woke me at 5:30 to nurse, it wasn't. I go to call the power company again to see if there was a time estimate on when power would be restored. There is no dial tone. The line is dead.... So we ate breakfast and piled into the van to go out where we get cell signal (5 miles from the house) so I can call my coworkers and let them know I wouldn't be online right away, if at all. We decided to go to the chiropractor since I had an unexpectedly free morning and my MIL was driving me crazy. Since they didn't have power either and she couldn't use her electronic pacifiers (using her computer and listening to podcasts on her phone) and our house was 3-4 degrees warmer than her house, she decided she wanted to camp out in our living room. So I needed to get away. We got back around 9:30 and proceeded to try to get things settled to live in the house without electricity (stream water for flushing toilets, dishpans to limit our water usage while doing dishes, etc.) Luckily, the power came back on before my MIL drove me to saying something I would regret. Today was the off Friday, and it wasn't as busy as two weeks ago, but I was 3 hours behind the time I usually log in, so I had to work until 6:30pm to make up for it. I also had a really cranky baby and a needy toddler and DH had to drive to PA to get our raw milk. I'm hoping the baby lets me sleep in tomorrow.
