Power & Heat out, but I still pulled it off ! (kinda)

the power went out last night in these bad wind storms we had. It had been flickering all day, and no power is really odd for us, but whatevs.

Ava was in the tub at the time it went out,  and FREAKED at the darkness, but we quickly recovered with a "fire party" as she dubbed all the candles. (great, lol)

The battery powered camping latern we had in her room as a nightlight ran out half-way thru the night, it was 53 degrees in the place by 3am, and I had to sleep with Ava to make sure the candles in her room didn't light the place up.

STILL no power this morning, but I finally saw the tree that crashed on the wires and called it in, AND it was "Halloween" at her school today, so I had to pull off something, in the wee hours of the dimmly-lit house.

LOL. I think we did ok. She LOVED it. But lemme tell ya... trying to get a toddler to hold still while I TRY to mimick a picture I saw last night on the internet...

not easy. Just sayin'.

(more piks on 'me blog, the wi-fi at McD's this morning, my "office" is not working very well, sorry)

    Just a "fun fact"--the day before we did the retrieval for the cycle that got us pg with the boys we had a horrific windstorm.  We had no power for 4 days (the hospital was on generator power that day) and because I didn't do so well during my procedure, I was home on the couch with no heat or power!  It ended up being lucky for us.  Maybe it's a sign for you?  I hope so!

    Look at the Amish Davez ;) Did you churn some butter and milk a goat too? *i kid i kid*

    PS: I'm a little pissed at mother Nature for not holding off that kick a$$ storm a few days for my arrival (I'm going to Duluth on the 2nd). I would have LOVED to see that. They were saying waves bigger than the day the Edmund Fitzgerald sank (not that I wish that on anyone obviously).
