Power Box

About one week ago the lights over the entire house began to flicker.  As we had heard at some point in time, we immediately called the power company.  Within only a few minutes, a repairman was at the meter box on the back of our house.  Apparently, old houses can have the bolts in the box come loose (or it is due to the earthquake). Our were loose and sparking! The power company repairman said we were close to having a fire.  So glad we called.  BTW, the power company is the only people allowed to open the meter box..

Hurricane Sandy

We began preprations on Friday so we are hunkered and ready. Fire in the fireplace and sipping hot coffee; still have electricity.

VP Debate

Last night we caught the tail end of the vice presidential debate and were shocked to see how Ryan was treating both his opponent and the moderator. His facial expression were insulting and rude. Scary to think he might become President; he might even be worse than Obama!
