We have power!

We are going through Hurricane Gustav at the moment and, wonder of all wonders...we still have electricity! I readied all the hurricane lamps and candle containers yesterday as I was washing clothes and dishes. Bryan and Ben were busy boarding windows and removing small items from the yard so they wouldn't be blown away. When I finally emerged out of a downright cold bedroom (had to have an extra blanket) around 10-ish this morning, I was amazed that Coast Electric (our supplier) was still online. Usually, when the wind blows around here, we lose power. Thanks, power people!
