Greetings.
Still in the dark and cold. Still schlepping to places like Panera Bread to sit for a spell, recharge things, and say hi to the world. The work to be done on our street, as I see it, is proceeding in as piecemeal a fashion as I believe is humanly possible. Power company has said the state should be 95% or 98% up by Monday night. You can't get any further or more detailed information out of them.
Called my electrician today. He'll be over next week to help me decide on a generator and start the process. No way I'm not doing it.
