It seems that one good side effect from Irma is that we are having beautiful weather now. It’s been fairly dry, in the mid 80’s. Perfect. It will probably go back into the 90’s before it cools for good, but it’s such a reprieve, especially when you don’t have power.

It seems there’s a good chance we will get power back today. The TV said last night that the whole county should be restored by midnight last night. I don’t know if I was restored by midnight because we left at about 8 for Dan’s since he had power for sure. We’ll go back to my house today, there is more clean-up to do. And one of my friends wants to come over for a little while. Probably to swap hurricane stories, lol.

I know it’s obvious, but it is amazing how we take for granted having power to run our whole houses. So that every time we flip a switch, or turn the washing machine on it works. How very lucky we are to have air conditioning, and just know it’s there. I think we always know this, but when you do without, you become really grateful for it. Grateful to have first world problems, unlike the Caribbean islands hit by this storm.

I haven’t been able to keep up with blogs for awhile now. First too much prep, then not enough battery life on my phone. I want to thank everyone though, for your well wishes and prayers.

It’s nice to have life begin to return to normal. Love and light.
