no power.. no water. one f-bomb. :)

Hey, guys--so, yesterday (day TEN with no power), I had to run a few errands. The boys were at a friend's house; I had to go to school, take a quiz, etc.

I ran home to get one thing, and found out that WE WERE OUT OF WATER! When the power guys were trying to repair our power, they hit a water main... I almost lost it. :) No power. No water. Hot, sticky, frustrating day.

But, SO MANY PEOPLE offered to help us out. We finally took up an offer from a friend of ours and went to their house for supper, showers, a load of mission-critical laundry, brushed our teeth, got all ready for bed and went home.

And, guess what!? We got home at 10:00pm to find that our POWER WAS ON!! After ten days. And, our fridge and freezer stunk, so last night, at 11:00pm, John and I cleaned out our fridge. It's sparkling now!

Now we just have to fill it!
