Again with the power

Man, I am so tired of this wonky weather that we have been having and also the power outages.
We have lost power over half a dozen times in the last year, and most of them have been in the last couple of months.

Mitch came home last night and was making his specialty dinner, BBQ Chicken Pizza, and right in the middle of it all, the power went out. Fortunately, since I had prepared for the "big storm" a few days ago, it was nothing but a thing to hook the generator up and continue with business as usual. The power was only out for about 2 hours - thank goodness - because our temperatures never got above 30 all day yesterday and we weren't looking forward to being without power for a long time in these temps.



On a funnier note, Emma got a little kit that had slippers and a matching sleeping mask that you could decorate. She was so excited to add her little sequins and baubles to her sleeping mask and pestered until Grandma Sandy finally helped her decorate it. Now, she hardly goes a night without wearing it. That child is the only one I know that will wear a stocking hat (for a night cap) her sweater, her slippers and a sleeping mask to bed. She is so cute though, Mitch has decided that he will start to call her Lovey, after Mrs. Howell on Gilligans Island :)
