We have power! And there was much rejoicing. Yay. No internet, so I’ll write this now but probably not post until later today, when we go into town.

Power came back on around 11:30 last night. A big shout out to the crews who have been working around the clock to bring power to the grid again. There were a tremendous number of damaged transformers.

We’re taking it easy today. While I have tried to look at all of this as a huge adventure, and to maintain a positive attitude, yesterday was hard. I’m so thankful that we have power today.

Fingers crossed that we’ll keep it – we’ve got an awful lot of wind blowing through right now.

It doesn’t help that I’m still sick. I went to the dentist yesterday, and a couple of other things happened, and I just feel beat up right now. I’m going to try for 500 words today, but that might be about it.

I hope that any one else in the PNW gets power back soon!
