After Ike

Update 5:00 P.M. Friday: Cable TV and Internet are back!!

We got power back Wednesday 24Sep08 apparently around 2:00 pm. A neighbor went home to get ready for a doctors appointment and walked by her refrigerator and said "Why is the light on in my refrigerator?". Then she did a dance, called all of us, and we danced.

You don't know how much you miss electricity until you don't have it. We were two towels away from using Garner camping towels and close to having to buy new underwear. You can't wash clothes.

Funny thing Wednesday night was I kept going into rooms in the dark (I was getting used to it) instead of flipping on the light switch, which I had been doing all along without success.

Next milestone....restoring cable & internet.....come on Comcast.
