View Full Version : Our power is out!
I keep asking my husband to turn the generator on but he said I could live without lights for a couple of hours.
All I can say is thank God for battery's on laptops.

I hope you still have heat. That's the worst part of a power outage for me. We are just now getting the storm here. I hope we don't lose power.

I know what it's like to lose power. It happens quite a bit to us here. We keep saying we're going to buy a generator but haven't yet. I hope your power is back on soon.

l sure hope your power is back on soon, its just to cold right now to be without for to long. l'm glad you have back up battery's for you laptops.
Okay, enough of this. 6 hours and still no power. I'm going to bed and hope it's on when we get up.

Is it from the wind? Are you guys getting the wind?
We generally dont get it here where I live, but its strong out there!
Do you have dialup or something? If I lost power, Id lose my internet too :(

Tacoma is getting the wind. It started some time last night. Yeserday afternoon it was really warm and calm. What is that? The calm before the storm? I woke up this morning to pelting rain and wind. My power rarely goes out, but we do have a small generator just in case. Most of the time we end up lending it to our friends when their power goes out. In fact, we just got it back this week from a friend in Elma who needed it during that awful flood.
Well, the power is on. It came on about 1 AM. I'm am one of the few left with dial up. Living out in the woods you have to give up some things. I told my DH that when we move to Kansas I want to live in the middle of town so I can walk to the store and I want high speed internet.

Wow Anita... What a difference 20 blocks makes if that. We lost power yesterday morning at about 6:30am and it came back on at 6:40 am. We have not lost it again... I agree with the whole dial up status I hate it... we are looking at Satelite.
