I won't bore you with our saga of Hurricane Irene. Suffice to say no power for 48 hours. We do have a generator so it wasn't too bad.
All without power, well sort of does the generator count? I did not finish my Hurricane Irene quilt because the power went out. The family decided water was more important than my sewing machine! We have to pick and choose what gets the power. I will finish it today and post it tomorrow.
My new favorite saying is "Knowledge is power but it doesn't make my blow dryer run"!

Sorry your power was out. We didn't have any damage from the storm, but my house is surrounded by trees. I didn't get anything done because I was terrified a tree would fall on the house.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to seeing your quilt finished.
Great saying!!! I'm glad it wasn't too bad for you. Looks like you did some fun things to pass the time. Quilting, Scrabbling, making pot holders.
ReplyDeleteHow thoughtful of you to post about what you did during your time without power, and that the generator power you did have had to be used for specific purposes. I'm glad you came through it fine. I adore playing Scrabble! I hope you won! Your Hurricane Irene quilt will get done when it gets done. No worries!
ReplyDeleteGlad you came through it all unscathed. Pity about the quilting plans.
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear about your power loss - My husband would be totally jealous of your generator.
ReplyDeleteIt was all I could do to keep my son and hubby from buying one on saturday - boys and toys...
