Our first power outage since the deep Texas February freeze

These past two days we have been having wonderful temperatures in the '60s, gray skies, and today even light showers. This afternoon I was in the middle of a telephone call when the lights went out at 1:25 p.m. for no apparent reason.

I fully expected the grid to go down sooner rather than later after our Texas February deep freeze. I actually thought that would have happened two weeks ago when for two consecutive days we broke area records...one day it was 102 and the next 103...many air conditioners were put to work on those days. Today it was 64 degrees not exactly air conditioner weather. The power came back on at 2:47 p.m.

This evening I am having yet another problem with Blogger as I type this a new format or box has sprung up on me so I have no idea how this is going to turn out. 

As I hit Preview Button before I post it, it has crammed everything together though I typed this in five separate paragraphs. I just do not have the time to figure this out...maybe it is also happening to others? Tomorrow summer begins in West Texas we will be in the '90s into the foreseeable future.

Good night. May you all have Terlingua Dreams.

Day 8 / Another cool day

This morning woke up to light showers and cool weather. The sun never came out today. We had a low of 60 and a high of 74 though it felt much colder inside the house.

Today is Day 8 of my self-isolation. While Texas is not under mandatory orders to stay at home I think I am the only one on this block to do so. I see the neighbors going to work every day. There really aren't any children on this street the only ones were the rowdy/drunk neighbor's but thank goodness he made up with his wife and left town.

Apart from watching the daily CoronaVirus Briefing which was bizarre, to put it mildly, I really did not do much. I am very tired wish I could sleep like normal people :-(

Good night.  May you all have Terlingua Dreams.
