The Power of Electricity!

Due to a storm this last Sunday, I have been out of power at my house until Wednesday morning. For some this might seem like a small thing – but to me it was HUGE!

I had to adjust to no air conditioning, no charging of the cell phone, no Internet, candlelight showers and not opening the fridge/freezer for fear of letting the cold air escape.

I didn’t realize that I had turned on my light in my bedroom until this morning when it turned on and I jumped out of bed disoriented and thinking I was being attacked! Good thing I was the only person home at this time! I did brave opening the freezer this morning to assess the damage and sad to say it is probably all going to have to be thrown out...

Overall, this morning I was a very grateful individual!!! I was thankful for lights in the bathroom (putting make-up on in the dark is not pretty), air-conditioning, music to help me get ready and overall electricity that really makes my life that much easier!
