Well, we woke up this morning and still...no electricity. I turned my phone on (I had to turn it off because I only had 1 bar on my battery) and called in sick. It was then that I found out that school had been called off! Patrick's office was without power too. So we slept a bit longer and got up to survey the damage to the yard/house. Luckily no damage to the house, just a lot of yard clean up. We were definitely the worst in the neighborhood in the yard mess catagory.We got the kids fed and dressed...first time they ever wore sweeaters! Aren't they cute! I love the munchkin hoods. We got outside and started to clean everything up. Later in the afternoon we went to Aunt Melissa and Uncle Timmy's to grab their chainsaw and bring over our freezer goods. (obviously they have electricity) It was a madhouse! There were lines down the street to get into the grocery store and people were almost ramming each other in line to get gas! Not sure why they were going to the grocery, where were they going to put the food?!
We of course took special effort to save the most important staple in our fridge! :)
By 3:30 we had our yard back in order and all the branches, sticks, leaves, and logs piled on the side of the road for the cleanup crews to come.
