13 hours without power!!

I was about to go crazy.

It was a terrible storm we had last night.  Don't remember ever seeing one that intense.  More trees went down in the neighborhood and the power went with them.

No way to make coffee.  No hot water for a shower.  No elevator so I had to WALK up and down five flights of stairs.  Going down was OK but climbing back up was almost more than I could handle.
 
Food was a problem because no electricity to make anything and nothing to make a sandwich with.  The Co-op has good sandwiches.  I decided to run over there and get a couple of those.  Guess what.  No power at the Co-op either.  They were closed too.  How about Kwik Trip?  CLOSED.  No power.  Conoco had power but no sandwiches.
 
We're slowly getting back to normal now but there's still bad news.  More storms are forecast tonight and some could be severe.  I can only hope we don't have a repeat of last night.
