Powerless

I'm blogging from my phone right now since I have no power and thus no wifi at my house. Apparently, there was a car accident this morning that severed a line that goes to a transformer that is part of my neighborhood's underground utilities. At least that's what a neighbor told me.

I made good use of the remaining daylight this evening. I watered my lawn and put down some fertilizer, planted a few caladium bulbs, pruned some vines and got them climbing up my trellises. Before I knew it, it was too dark to stay outside, but also too dark to do anything inside.

I tried reading by candlelight, but quickly determined that I don't have enough candles to have enough light to read comfortably. I need to get "emergency" candles so I'm better prepared next time.

It's really hot upstairs where my bedroom is, so I'm hoping to get a little sleep tonight.

Does anyone know how long the food in my freezer will be okay if I don't open the door? If hate to have to throw everything away.

Let's hope Nashville Electric gets the power back on soon--I have too many things planned for the weekend and I need electricity!
