The Eye on Ike: Post-Ike experiences day 10

 

Wow, it’s already the 10nth day since Ike hit.  Time flies when you have electric clocks and no power.

As of this morning we still are out - one of the only ones in our neighborhood.  The neighbors across the street, and the cross streets at the end of our block got it yesterday, but our block is still out.  They did come in sometime yesterday and chop up the trees near the powerlines in the backyard (we lost the biggest tree along the back fence because of this - they butchered it so badly we had to finish cutting it down - and they did not even clean up after themselves - just left the branches ina big jumble, some hanging from the tree and fence).  But I guess it’s a sign they are working on it.

Last night was also the warmest night yet - we actually ran the gen all night long with some fan wind blowing on us - moved the futon mattress to the living room floor and slept there.  Also used the laptop to watch some movies “in bed.”

I’ve got some work to do tomorrow, Wednesday and possible Saturday, with more yardwork to fill the gaps.

Also getting ready to update the software on this blog and change the appearance somewhat (found a great template I can modify today).
