Another day without electricity and waiting. We have been told they re repairing the easiest to the hardest to fix places first, the most important, the most populated, to the least first.

I can only hope that my area is considered important enough to be put up there on the fix it this week list. In the mean time I am still at my daughter's house resting comfortably with a bad c...dealing with the after effects of the storm

Talk about emotional eating, this weekend should be a great test for me and my husband as we will be in a house with the rain and wing going around us like we have not experienced before and a dog who freaks out under " normal thunderstorms." Thankfully, I went to vet to get something for the dog's problems, but for my own anxieties, I have none. This is were for many food would be a great temptation.
