Electricity

Friends, we had no electricity for about 27 hours from Thursday evening to Friday night. We played card games under candle lights… for hours. We stayed in our house, on Thursday night but by Friday afternoon, I was looking for friendly pet hotels to stay for the night because the temperature dipped below 55 degrees on Friday evening. I brought hot coffee and a bagel for breakfast to an elderly neighbor who lives alone. I brought her more coffee in the afternoon in a thermos to help her keep warm but eventually, I drove her to a hotel on Friday night as she couldn’t have stayed in her house one more night. But luckily, while we were contemplating searching different cities for a room, the lights came back on Friday night. And when the snow eventually stopped, we saw the damages done in and around our neighborhood.
