February 2, 2009

Alright I know it's coming (the electricity) but it's seems like forever. I'm so over not having my kitchen appliances, the television and oh how I miss my blow dryer & flat iron. I have looked like a bush woman for almost a week now. If you haven't heard we are currently on our 3rd generator. Teresa, thankfully had purchased us one after our week without power after the hurricane winds. We went through two by Friday. Mark went yesterday to Lowe's and bought a heavy duty expensive one that better last us the rest of our lives. Mark, Geoff and the neighbor Tony were successful in hooking up the furnace to the generator so we have heat but that's it.

Little Miss Ella has been such a sweetheart through all of this. She doesn't realize what is going on. She keeps grabbing the remote and pushing the buttons and pointing it at the tv. She's not been sleeping very well I think she is cutting a new tooth on the bottom and early this week when we didn't have power and she cried I would go and get her because I was afraid she was cold. She is going to be so mad at me tonight because she can't keep doing this to mommy - mommy is tired too.

Anyway the people who live 2 streets in front of us and 2 streets behind us all have power and Mark said a couple of houses at the end of our street have it so maybe it will be tonight. I used to like to go out to eat, not anymore, I'm so sick of take out. I brought a roast & carrots to work today to cook in my crockpot.
