Wouldn'tcha know it?

Just as I was getting used to the idea of living without electricity, the power comes back on.

I wasn't entirely pleased. I had just revised my expectations of my home and my standard of living back about 80 years by 6:00 PM when my wife comes in the room and says, "Ya-a-ay! Guess what just happened?!"

I looked up from my book and realized the house was humming.

So, we immediately turned on the TV and watched the PBS special on the 1940s to celebrate.

We now get to move all the food back that we had moved into a freezer in St. Paul.

Life is wonderful.
