I'm tired of......

[kitty]

So sorry you had to go through all of that!!

I guess in a time like this, it does make us aware of the things we take for granted and maybe it will help us to become more appreciative of the simple pleasures in life.

too true! We dont get power outages here for more than a couple of hours - I think I would go nuts!! I have always made a point of living near a hospital - you always get reconnected first

Welcome Back Molly

[citcat]

You're a better woman than I am.....I would've ended up in a 'home' or in jail if I didn't have electricity for that long.

Thanks everyone, but this wasn't suppose to be about me---I thought other Ike survivors would post their adventures.

I was without power for 13 days for a 5 min fix. Gotta love Center Point Energy. There is an article in the Houston paper today about the Reliant Energy (a wholly owned subsidiary of Center Point Energy) complaining that the power outage cost them 3.5 million in revenue. BOO HOO.

I do have to say that because of the power outage my refrigerator is as clean as it was the day I bought it.

My wallet is empty now after going shopping to replace all the stuff I had to throw out of my fridge and deep freeze.

I spent all day this past Saturday cleaning, because I couldn’t clean for 13 days. Do you know how much dirt gets tracked into the house when the window and doors are always open? Lots. During the power outage I had my kids sweeping the carpets with whisk brooms just to keep up with the dirt.

I agree with everything Carol said----the first thing I did was start the washer--2 weeks of laundry to do and Larry used the vacuum----stuff tracked on the carpet----UGH

Even though I haven't been on here in a while...(life's turns ) I am glad you are finally going to get back to- normal?
