Power's Back!

Power came back on here at midnight.  We were tired of playing pioneer and only being able to get news from WLW.  (We probably could do that with aluminum foil and a coat hanger.)

Watched my neighbor's mailbox sail away during one gust and wondering about the overloaded pear tree at the end of the street---pears going 80 miles an hour could be dangerous!

Picked up stray branches from the yard yesterday.  We had three large branches come off the maple tree but no real damage. One branch caught the end of the garage gutter but DH pounded the gutter spike back in so we're good.  (And that's why the third little pig had a house made of bricks!) 

No school again today  Guess I'll open the frig and see what goes into the trash---let's see ---yogurt is already spoilt so it should be fine---just kidding!. 

Hope everyone made it through the storm fine!

hi!! glad you got your power back on!!! sorry for those still without it...they said alot of the power people went to texas to help them there so it could be awhile for all to get power back on here...

before i moved here from michigan we had a tornado of sorts go through and toppled tons and tons of trees...we lost power and had a blast with the candles and flashlights...had a tv that ran off batteries and was ok with that...atleast it was noise...we partied on the front porch watching cars zoom down the street only to find a tree across the road and they had to screech to a halt...guess they went to fast to see the yellow tape blocking the road ahead???

sorry you lost food...hang in there better days are coming...

hugs

It's been SUCH a mess all over everywhere.  Tonight my mom and I are going to attempt to move all my downed branches to the curb.

I am thankful that my power was out less than 24 hours, but I sure am getting cranky about still not having any cable/internet/phone at home.  Giving serious consideration to bagging the digital phone and just going back to SBC (I have to have some kind of home phone for the alarm system)...

Power came back on sometime this afternoon. All food in fridge b freezer is gone. Still over 500,000 people without power n now tonight i heard a water main on I71 causing major delays.

You're right about wlw though excpt you probably woulld not need the antenna lol

yea this is nuts.  so many still without power.

my son goes to St. Rita's and they are on day 3 tomorrow of no school.

Just got back from a conference in Columbus---things are in bad shape up there too.  Most of the schools were still closed today.
