Still no electricity. It’s Day #7. They think we might have power sometime tomorrow.
I’m back at work today. At least here, I have heat, light, and internet.
Our neighbor is out of hip surgery, but won’t fully recover for 6-12 months, and 2 months in the hospital & rehab.
I’m really thinking about taking a couple of vacation days after all this is over.
Hell yeah you should take some vacation days! I’ve been following your saga via el blog and my thoughts have been with you and the others affected by the storm (or rather, long delay of return to normalcy after the storm). Seems crazy that it would take so long to get power restored considering 3 days after the ice hit we had 60°+ weather in Little Rock (sorry, not sure how warm it did eventually get up there).
In conclusion, you totally deserve a few days off and I hope the situation improves rapidly. Take care!
