November 19th

We have no electricity.

A storm went through Indiana on Sunday. Heavy winds and some tornadoes. We got some bad wind and a little storm action. We lost power on Sunday at 3pm. (Today is Tuesday). We're not supposed to get our power restored until tomorrow around noon. It's really boring at home with no electricity. Eddie's going crazy without electronics. He and Vallerie have taken me to work the last couple days so he can be out of the house.

We took our "frozen" food over to my grandpas house, but all of the fridge food is bad. We had just gone shopping on Saturday, so we were actually pretty ticked off about that. We've never lost power for this long before, so we thought it would be ok.

Last Friday I interviewed for a new position at work. A co-worker of mine also interviewed. We haven't heard anything yet, but hopefully soon we will. I kind of think it will be after the Thanksgiving holiday.

On Saturday we visited Eddie's mom. Her apartment complex was having a bizarre and lots of people had little booths set up to sell their crafts and stuff. I gave several of my paper ornaments to his mom to sell for me. I sold some of them so I was happy. I saw some cool looking scarves made out of this ribbon looking yarn. I might try to find it and make some of my own. The scarves were more decorative than for warmth. They were very pretty.

We took home a little dresser that Eddie's mom had. I put it in Vallerie's closet and put some of her things in there and then tidied up her closet. I have a bunch of baby blankets to give to Goodwill. I took out all of her 2T clothes and boxed them up (it's a lot!).

Not much else is going on, or I can't think of anything... Hopefully we get our electricity sooner than tomorrow. It's getting chilly in the house!!
