All the electricity went off tonight after the storm. We hunted around for candles and matches. It was kinda neat to sit quietly by candle light but we have a house full of people coming for a party tomorrow so we had to do all the preparation of the food by candle light.
Then we discussed what we would do if the electricity didn't come back on. Would we still have the party, and decided we would, that we could sit out on the patio and enjoy the moonlight. We even figured out how we could get everything cooked.
Just as we were getting ready for bed, the lights came back on. Kudos to the electric company crew. Even though it might have been fun to sit around the firepit in the moonlight. It is so great to flip a switch and instantly have light.
We take so much for granted when it is always there. Need to let my better half know how much I appreciate him.
