Crazy kids with limited lights
We had an interesting adventure last week. A true Crazy weather glitch here. Just when you think we are going to see spring we got hit with a great big ice storm. All the trees and power lines were iced up and you guessed it the power went out!....for 3 1/2 days. Looks like a war zone in our nearest City with trees and power lines down every where. They called it a state of emergency.
Thankful that Dan is a Ice Fisherman so he had a propane heater to heat the basement and some solar lights to keep us in dim lights, a solar radio and solar panels that he hooked to a car battery that kept just enough charge to power a couple plug ins so we could keep a movie payer going for NeVaeh and get the WiFi going for awhile. We were only actually home bound for a day and a half so it wasn't too bad....brings back memories of 20+ years ago after an ice storm and no electricity for a week. We were then snowed in and isolated from the outside world and using candles....did have wood to heat back then but no electronics ...how the world has changed for being without electricity.

Ok so you guessed it we haven't finalized yet and its April 17th...LOL. Its just the way every thing has gone...Nothing goes on time as we have found out many times. However we have signed papers and sent them to the lawyer for the name changes so fingers crossed that it wont be very long that finalization will be complete.
Goofball I said smile not yell.... :)

A little humor..The kids happened apon a Polka Time show and I told them it was what my parents used to watch so they tried out dancing to it.
