What is going on...yet another power outage!

This was definitively not an early rise day.  Though I was awake, my arms and back ached so I did not get up until eleven o'clock and could have stayed in bed even longer.  That is the problem with procrastination...sooner or later you pay the price times two.

Got an e-mail notification that my order was ready for pick up at Walmart.  Briefly considered going to pick it up. Concluded that it could wait until tomorrow.  Decided to have an early dinner when the lights went out at 4:51 p.m.  I was livid!

WTH is going on?  This time I was ready...the cell phone was charged...I had the correct number to report an outage not just in one room but in several. I had just finished bringing in the charged solar lights and this week I had frozen even more water bottles as well as 64 oz Apple Juice containers.

I was the first person to report the outage in my area per the individual who took my report.  After a while it got stuffy so I opened up the kitchen windows as we had SE 9 mph winds with gusts of 16 mph.

Turned off or disconnected the power strips to protect my electrical equipment as well as the air conditioning.  At 6:30 p.m. the electricity came back on after 2 hours and 19 minutes.  It lasted all of maybe 10 seconds when it went out again but not before I heard several transmitters blow.

At 7:02 p.m. the electricity was finally restored.  So today's outage lasted 2 hours and 51 minutes and I have NO idea what caused it.

I was too stressed out by the events so decided to make the trip to Walmart after all.

Good night.  May you all have Terlingua Dreams.
